Ryan Harris Physiotherapy Melbourne

Sports injuries require thorough assessment to determine the true cause of the injury, its severity and contributing factors. Common contributing factors can include lack of strength, poor load management or poor technique. Rehabilitation for sports injuries includes the acute management of the injury as well as a focus on preventing a recurrence of the injury.

At Ryan Harris Physiotherapy we understand that not only each is each sport different, but each position also has its own requirements. We develop a rehabilitation program that takes into account these specific requirements and aim to get you back to sport at a higher performance level than when you became injured.
