Sports Injury FAQs

When should I see a professional for a sports injury?

If pain lasts more than a few days, if there is significant swelling, or if you cannot put weight on the injured area, it is time to get assessed. Early treatment often leads to faster recovery.

Can I still exercise while recovering?

Often, yes. Your sports physiotherapy practitioner will guide you on safe activities and modifications. Our kinesiologists design sports rehab exercise programs that support recovery while keeping you active.

How long does sports injury recovery take?

Recovery time varies by injury. Minor sprains may resolve in 2-4 weeks, while ACL rehab or tendon injuries may take 6-12 weeks of sports rehab. Your practitioner will give you a realistic timeline.

Do you treat both acute and chronic sports injuries?

Yes. We treat recent injuries as well as long-standing issues like chronic tendinitis, recurring strains, and overuse injuries that have not responded to rest alone.
