Sports injuries can involve muscle, tendon, ligament and even bone damage. Proper identification of the affected structure will determine the therapeutic approach. The treatment is adjusted to each case individually, and is based on the in-depth knowledge of the healing processes of each specific tissue. Not everything can be seen in x-rays, bone mapping, CT scans, or MRI. Manual examination performed by a therapist at admission and during follow-up sessions is essential for the success of the treatment.

Studies have shown that stopping the activity entirely is as dangerous as overexertion. An experienced rehabilitation specialist determines the exact amount of exercise your body needs and develops a workout plan tailored to your abilities to ensure an optimal return to sports training. Rehabilitation must be adjusted to the type of sports a patient practices.

Injections or surgeries do not cure most sports injuries. Injuries due to malfunctioning of the musculoskeletal system can not always be detected by X-ray, MRI or the like. In such cases, manual examination performed by a rehabilitation expert is the best solution. Conservative rehabilitation plays a very important role before, after and often in place of invasive treatment. The possibility of conservative rehabilitation should always be considered as an alternative to surgery or injections. A few conditions, however, cannot be addressed with this method, and an orthopedist has no choice but to operate. Each invasive procedure has its consequences and side effects. Therefore, if such procedure is performed, it is desirable that the athlete continues the rehabilitation as soon as possible in order to ensure optimal recovery.
