Sport Physiotherapy
At Alter Physio, sports physiotherapy isn’t just about treating injuries—it’s about understanding the whole body to enhance performance and prevent future problems. Unlike traditional approaches that focus only on the injured area, I aim to uncover the root cause of your pain or limitation. By addressing how your entire body functions and moves, I help you reach your full potential and maintain a pain-free, high-performance lifestyle.
My Approach
Think of my sports physio approach like running a well-oiled organization. When a business encounters issues, it’s rarely the fault of just one department. Often, it’s the result of small inefficiencies in different areas, building up over time. Similarly, when you experience pain in a specific joint or muscle, it’s rarely that isolated part of the body that’s the sole problem. Small imbalances elsewhere in the body may have accumulated, eventually causing discomfort or injury.
Instead of just treating the painful area, I ask why it’s happening in the first place. I conduct a comprehensive assessment of your body to identify imbalances or movement patterns that may be contributing to your pain. For instance, if you have knee pain, I don’t just treat the knee—I examine your posture, muscle balance, and overall movement. By addressing these underlying issues, I help you move in ways that prevent future pain and reduce the risk of injury. My holistic approach ensures that you achieve balanced, efficient movement, whether you’re an athlete or someone looking to improve everyday mobility.
