Injury Prevention

If you are an athlete or a sportsperson, you might be well aware of the fact that injuries are part and parcel of any sport. With all the fun one has while playing sports comes the risk of injuries. It is important to address these risks and take measures to avoid such injuries. Hence, we at Flexifit help in recovery and include injury prevention techniques in our treatments. 

What is injury prevention?

Some injuries do take a lot of time to recover from. When you are finally back on the field, you don’t want the risk of falling or injuring yourself again, right? We at Flexifit help you do that.  

With Flexifit, you can reduce the risk of these injuries substantially. We not only help sportsmen to deal with injuries, but we also see to it that they don’t happen again. For this, we teach them various injury prevention skills and techniques that they can practise to reduce the risk of the injuries reoccurring. 

Sometimes, injuries also happen because of imbalance or muscle weakness. Our core and strength training programs help sportsmen improve their strength, mobility, and agility to help them play better.

How does injury prevention at Flexifit work?

We at Flexifit understand that all injuries cannot be avoided, especially when it comes to a highly physical activity like sports. Hence, our experts work with patients to relieve their pain, improve, and avoid further injuries. 

How we at Flexifit help you with injury prevention:

  • Formulation of goals based on the sport

Based on what type of sport you play and your needs, our experts will devise a plan to help you achieve your goals while staying safe and away from injuries. They will assess your sport based on its intensity, training setting, the need for flexibility, mobility, balance, agility, etc. This will help them design a plan around your sport that doesn’t only help you heal but also helps you learn techniques to avoid any such accidents again. 

  • Diagnose imbalance or sudden weakness in the bones 

Many injuries happen due to imbalance or sudden weakness in the bones. Our experts find out the real cause behind it and treat the cause along with the injury. If the cause is weak muscles or a deformity, we work with you to overcome that and get back to the field even stronger.

  • Improve mental health with injury prevention skills

With the root cause treated, the patient’s injuries are less likely to reoccur on the field. After serious injuries, many sportsmen can have the instinct to try to avoid injuries continuously. That is a psychological response to a traumatic incident.

However, once you have recovered from the injury and know how to keep yourself safe, you will be able to concentrate on your game more than trying to keep injuries away. The injury prevention skills we teach you will take care of you and keep you safe.

  • Injury prevention exercises

Injury prevention at Flexifit is done with the help of various exercises that help patients get their mobility and movement back. Then, they gradually gain back their strength and balance through exercises and therapy. Throughout this treatment, they are advised on techniques to help them avoid such injuries further.

  • Identify the possible risks of further injuries

Based on your movement patterns and other factors, our experts help you identify the possible risks of further injuries. With that in mind, you are advised on some precautions and skills to help you avoid injuries. In turn, they will also help you perform better. This is because you will have better control of your body and its movements on the field, hence giving you an advantage.

Why choose Flexifit?

We at Flexifit understand a sportsman’s need to be able to get back on the field. But we also understand the importance of helping them heal faster. However, we assure you that with our treatment plan made for recovery and injury prevention, they will be able to get on the field stronger and better than before.

For the past few months I have had the pleasure of receiving physiotherapy treatment from Tessa at FlexiFit Physiotherapy in Collaroy for an ongoing neck & back issue, and I must say it has been an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked into the clinic, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere, which immediately put me at ease. Tessa demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise throughout my sessions. She took the time to thoroughly assess my condition, listening attentively to my concerns and addressing them with the utmost care. Her extensive knowledge and understanding of the human body were evident in her ability to accurately diagnose and develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to my specific needs. What truly impressed me was Tessa’'s ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise manner. She patiently guided me through each step of the treatment process, ensuring that I understood the purpose and benefits of each exercise or technique. This not only empowered me to actively participate in my own recovery but also instilled a sense of trust and confidence in her abilities. I am delighted to say that thanks to Tessa's expertise and guidance, I have experienced significant improvement in my condition. Her holistic approach, combining manual therapy, exercise prescription, and education, has not only alleviated my pain but also equipped me with the tools to prevent future injuries. I highly recommend FlexiFit Physio to anyone in need of physiotherapy services. Their professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for their patients make them an outstanding practitioner in their field. I am very grateful for the positive impact they have had on my health and well-being.

I can’t recommend the team at Flexifit highly enough! I’ve had chronic shoulder problems for 2 years and seen other specialists which hadn’t solved the problem. Tessa at Flexifit sourced the problem and after the first session, my shoulders were sitting aligned - the first time that’s happened in 2 years. I felt validated with the pain I was in and feel so much more positive about my treatment pathway with Flexifit.

Georgia’s brilliant and excels in all the areas I want from a physio - diagnosing/figuring out the prob, massage and physical work, and then exercises to do at home to help long term. Worth the 40 minute drive!

I've been seeing Georgia and Tessa from FlexiFit for the last year, and they have both been outstanding. They are caring, compassionate and highly skilled. They have assisted me with managing multiple injuries and I've referred several members of my family who are equally impressed with their services! Thank you, Georgia and Tessa, you guys are amazing!

I can commend Georgia and Tessa for their excellent hands-on approach. So many physios nowadays are often hands-off, so being treated at FF has been a refreshing change 🙌🏻

The team at FlexiFit Physio are exceptional practitioners who genuinely care about the outcomes for their clients. When you book with Georgia or Tessa you know you have their full attention for the session, they are not juggling multiple clients and their hands on therapeutic approach is seamless and extremely effective to reduce pain and enable progression from injury. I can not recommend them more highly. Thanks guys!

My experience at FlexiFit Physiotherapy has been truly exceptional, and I would wholeheartedly recommend both Georgia and Tessa to anyone in search of effective support for managing persistent pain conditions. Both Georgia and Tessa have been integral to my journey in addressing both acute knee pain and long-standing issues with back pain, tension headaches, and migraines. In the past, my interactions with healthcare professionals haven't always yielded lasting results. However, the level of attentiveness and authentic care they've shown for my overall well-being and the underlying causes of my pain are clearly reflected in their hands-on approaches, follow- up care and advice and healing strategies. I feel so lucky to have found this practice.
