To begin the rehabilitation process... 

 

Either our sports medicine doctor at SSIC or one of our physiotherapists will first consult with each patient to assess their specific problem. From there, our professional physiotherapists and massage therapists create a treatment plan that is tailored to rehabilitate the patient in the safest and most effective way. 

 

Regardless of your sport, throughout the healing process SSIC will educate you on the appropriate exercises and drills that will help prevent a recurrence of your injury.

 

In an effort to help prevent sports injuries from occurring in the first place, we recommend that you follow the tips below as they will help you reduce your risk of injury:

 

• Complete a thorough warm-up before any sports activity

• Do stretching exercises daily, even when not participating in sports
