Do You Need Help with Sporting Injuries?

At Fika Chiropractic, we know how frustrating and limiting sporting injuries can be. Whether you're a weekend warrior or a professional athlete, we are here to help you recover naturally and get back to doing what you love.

Do you experience any of the following?

  • Pain or discomfort after exercise or sport

  • Limited range of motion or stiffness in your muscles or joints

  • Muscle strains, sprains, or tears

  • Joint instability or frequent sprains

  • Swelling, bruising, or inflammation

  • Pain or discomfort that worsens after activity

  • Difficulty returning to sport after an injury

  • Persistent aches or pains from previous injuries

Sporting injuries are common, and they can range from acute injuries, like sprains and strains, to chronic conditions resulting from overuse or improper movement patterns. At Fika Chiropractic, we focus on identifying the root cause of your injury and providing a holistic treatment approach to help you recover fully.

Common Causes of Sporting Injuries

Sporting injuries can occur due to various factors, including:

  • Overuse or repetitive movement during sports

  • Poor biomechanics or incorrect posture during activity

  • Insufficient warm-up or cool-down routines

  • Sudden movements or improper technique

  • Trauma or impact injuries (e.g., falls, collisions)

  • Lack of flexibility or strength in the muscles and joints

  • Previous injuries leading to compensation and imbalances

Our Approach to Treating Sporting Injuries

At Fika Chiropractic, we offer a personalised and evidence-based approach to treating sporting injuries. We focus not just on the injury itself but on the entire neuromusculoskeletal system, aiming to restore balance and function to the body as a whole.

Step 1: Accurate Diagnosis
Your recovery begins with a comprehensive consultation and physical examination. We’ll take a thorough history of your injury, assess your movement patterns, and perform any necessary tests, such as orthopaedic and neurological evaluations. This ensures that we understand the root cause of your injury and create an effective treatment plan.

Step 2: Tailored Treatment Plan
Once we have a clear diagnosis, we’ll create a treatment plan tailored to your specific injury and recovery goals. This may include:

  • Chiropractic adjustments to improve alignment and reduce tension

  • Soft tissue therapy (e.g., massage, myofascial release) to release muscle tightness and reduce inflammation

  • Rehabilitation exercises to strengthen muscles, improve flexibility, and support recovery

  • Posture and technique correction to prevent future injuries

  • Advice on activity modifications and rest periods to allow for proper healing

Step 3: Prevention and Ongoing Support
To ensure lasting recovery and prevent future injuries, we’ll provide you with strategies to improve your mobility, flexibility, and strength. This may include specific exercises, sports rehabilitation, and advice on injury prevention techniques, so you can return to your sport with confidence.
