Sporting activities place a greater strain on all of the structures in the lower limb, often leading to injury. Further to this, poor lower limb biomechanics can often contribute to overuse injuries. Having all been involved or still involved in various sporting activities, we understand the toll injuries can take on your body. With a specialist biomechanical room set up within the clinic we are well equipped to handle any type of sporting injury you may have sustained.

Some common sporting injuries include:

  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Achilles tendinitis
  • Shin pain
  • Ankle sprains
  • Plantar plate pathology
  • Patella-femoral pain syndrome
  • Stress fracture
