Saskatoon Sport Injury Treatment
Axis Health Center Specializes In Sport Injury Recovery Of Any Sport!
Injuries are common during any sporting season and are classified as either traumatic or overuse.
A specific incident causes traumatic injuries, such as:
- Sprains (i.e., ankle or ACL)
- Strains, including pulled muscles
- Concussions (i.e., football collisions, soccer ball heading, falls, etc.)
Overuse injuries, however, are caused by repetitive movements and/or poor technique performed over time. Overuse injuries include the following:
- Tendinitis (i.e., rotator cuff injury, shin splints, jumper’s knee)
- Repetitive stress with poor technique (i.e., stress fractures, throwing injuries)
Sprains are a common injury in sports. Ligaments connect your bones. A sprain can occur when a ligament is stretched beyond its limits and may cause a tear. When a ligament is stretched, it becomes looser and more prone to being sprained again in the future.
Strains, also known as pulled muscles, are similar to sprains but affect muscles and tendons rather than ligaments. Tendons are the fibrous bands that connect your muscles to your bones. A strain can occur when a tendon is stretched beyond its limit. If the tendon is injured, it must be completely healed or it can lead to chronic overuse.
We will conduct an injury screening to identify any underlying conditions that may result in future injuries. If and when we identify limitations and weaknesses, we will address them head-on in order to resolve them fully.
As you progress through rehabilitation, the intensity and complexity of your program will be increased. To prepare your body for the demands of a competitive sports season, our team will incorporate sports-specific training. We will work hard to get you ready for the start of your season.
