Recover With Confidence

When a sports injury sidelines you, it's more than just the pain; it's the disruption to your active lifestyle that really stings. At Physiocare, we understand your eagerness to get back in the game. Our sports physio services cater to patients from Buderim, designed to not only alleviate your discomfort but to restore your strength and confidence.


Sports injuries can occur during athletic activities, exercise or sports. They typically result from overuse, direct impact or the application of force greater than the body part can withstand. Common sports that can cause injuries include football, rugby, tennis, running and basketball. These activities often involve sudden movements, repetitive motions or physical contact, increasing the risk of injury.


Our dedicated physiotherapists combine exercise and rehabilitation with a welcoming environment, so your path to recovery can be a positive experience. With us, you can expect efficient and timely care, because we know you're keen to make every session count. Don't let an injury keep you off your feet for longer than necessary; call us on (07) 5443 5695 to book.

Injuries We Treat

At Physiocare, we treat a variety of sports injuries, each requiring a unique approach:


  • Sprains: Sprains occur when ligaments are stretched or torn due to sudden twists, falls or impacts, commonly affecting ankles, knees and wrists. The injury involves ligament overstretching, causing pain, swelling and instability. Treatment typically includes rest, ice, compression, elevation (RICE), physical therapy and in severe cases, immobilisation or surgery.


  • Strains: Strains happen when muscles or tendons are overstretched or torn, often from excessive force, overuse or improper technique, commonly in the back, hamstrings and quadriceps. This results in muscle fibre or tendon damage, causing pain, spasms and limited movement. Treatment typically involves RICE, anti-inflammatory medications and rehabilitation focused on stretching and strengthening.


  • Ligament Tears: Ligament tears result from high-impact sports or sudden directional changes, frequently affecting the ACL in the knee. These tears disrupt joint stability, leading to pain, swelling and loss of function. Treatment typically ranges from physical therapy to surgical reconstruction followed by comprehensive rehabilitation.


  • Overuse Injuries: Overuse injuries develop from repetitive stress on muscles, tendons and bones, such as tendinitis, stress fractures and shin splints. These injuries result from cumulative microtrauma, leading to inflammation and pain. Treatment typically involves rest, activity modification and targeted exercises to address underlying causes, with physiotherapy to correct biomechanics and strengthen affected areas.


We also address other sports-related injuries including tendonitis and stress fractures. Contact us today.

  • How do I know if my sports injury is serious?

    Signs that a sports injury may be serious include severe pain, swelling, inability to move the affected area and visible deformities. If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek medical attention immediately. A physiotherapist or doctor can provide a proper diagnosis and recommend the appropriate treatment.

  • What causes muscle cramps in sports?

    Muscle cramps during sports can be caused by dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, overuse poor conditioning, inadequate warm-up, heat and humidity, poor nutrition, tight muscles and certain medical conditions. Addressing these factors can help reduce the risk of cramps.

  • What is the role of rest in sports injuries?

    Rest plays a crucial role in the recovery from sports injuries by:


    • Allowing Healing: Rest gives the body time to repair damaged tissues and cells.
    • Reducing Inflammation: Minimising movement helps decrease swelling and inflammation.
    • Preventing Further Injury: Resting the injured area helps prevent additional strain or damage.
    • Conserving Energy: The body can direct energy towards healing rather than activity.
    • Alleviating Pain: Reduced activity can help manage and lessen pain.
