Understanding Sprains & Strains

Sprains
A sprain occurs when a ligament (the tissue connecting bone to bone) is overstretched or torn.
Common areas include:

  • Ankle sprains

  • Knee sprains

  • Wrist sprains

 
Strains
A strain affects a muscle or tendon, often caused by overstretching, overuse, or sudden force.
Common areas include:

  • Back & neck

  • Hamstrings

  • Calf

  • Shoulder

 
Both injuries can lead to pain, swelling, bruising, stiffness, and reduced strength or mobility. Without proper rehabilitation, they can easily recur — which is why physiotherapy is essential for full recovery.

about us

Every rehab plan begins with a detailed assessment to understand what happened, what structures are affected, and what movement patterns contributed to the injury.

Your treatment may include:

  • Manual therapy to reduce stiffness and restore joint mobility

  • Soft tissue massage & myofascial release to improve healing

  • Dry needling or electrotherapy to reduce pain and inflammation

  • Targeted strength & flexibility exercises to rebuild muscle function

  • Balance & proprioception training (crucial for ankle/knee injuries)

  • Biomechanical analysis to correct faulty movement patterns

  • Education & prevention strategies to stop the injury from coming back
     

Our goal is simple: guide you from early pain relief to full return to activity — stronger and more resilient than before.
