Sports injuries
Sports injuries are common among both professional and recreational athletes. Injuries can range from mild sprains that heal in a few days to serious injuries that can have a major impact on athletic performance and daily life.
How do sports injuries occur?
Sports injuries can occur as a result of sudden movements, overuse, poor technique, insufficient warm-up or insufficient recovery between training sessions. Ligament sprains and strains or tears of muscles and tendons are the most common injuries that can occur during sports. Think of jumps, twists and abrupt stops during football, basketball, tennis and skiing.

What types of sports injuries are there and do we treat them?
There are many different types of sports injuries, as well as the extent and severity of an injury. These are of course decisive for the treatment method. Sometimes rest and exercises are sufficient, usually treatment is necessary and it also happens that more complex interventions are required. We have experience with, among other things:
- Sprains, in which the ligaments are stretched or torn.
- Strain of muscles and tendons, such as the hamstrings and calf muscles.
- Muscle cramps in which a muscle or group of muscles contracts uncontrollably.
- Knee injuries, with meniscus damage or torn cruciate ligaments.
- Shoulder injuries, such as shoulder instability or inflammation.
- Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow.
- Back injuries ranging from muscle strains to hernias and spinal fractures.
