Sports Injury Physiotherapy
Whether you're a weekend warrior or a competitive athlete, sports injuries can be frustrating and debilitating. At Hi Movement, Kristen provides expert assessment and evidence-based treatment to get you back to the activities you love — safely, confidently, and stronger than before.
Acute Injury Management
Prompt, effective treatment for acute injuries including sprains, strains, and impact injuries. We focus on reducing pain and swelling quickly so your recovery starts on the right foot.
Rehabilitation Programs
Structured, progressive rehabilitation tailored to your specific injury, sport, and goals. Each program is designed to restore strength, mobility, and confidence through every stage of recovery.
Return to Sport
A guided return-to-sport pathway with objective benchmarks and sport-specific testing. We ensure you meet the physical demands of your activity before you step back on the field or court.
Injury Prevention
Proactive screening and targeted programs to identify weaknesses and reduce your risk of future injuries. Prevention is always better than cure — and it keeps you doing what you love for longer.
Common Sports Injuries We Treat
At Hi Movement, we treat a wide range of sports-related injuries across all levels of activity. Common presentations include ankle sprains and ligament injuries, tendinopathies (Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff), muscle tears and strains, ACL and other knee ligament injuries, stress fractures, and overuse injuries such as shin splints and runner's knee.
No matter the injury, our goal is the same: to understand exactly what's happened, explain it clearly, and build a recovery plan that gets you back to full function as quickly and safely as possible.
Our Treatment Approach
Every sports injury consultation at Hi Movement begins with a thorough assessment. Kristen takes the time to understand how the injury occurred, your current symptoms, and your goals for returning to sport or activity.
Treatment typically combines hands-on manual therapy to reduce pain and restore movement, progressive exercise rehabilitation to rebuild strength and control, and sport-specific training to bridge the gap between rehab and performance. As a qualified nutritionist, Kristen can also advise on how nutrition supports tissue healing and recovery — giving you a truly holistic approach to getting back in the game.
