Frequently asked questions

 

 

Should I have a goal in mind for my Infinite Health sessions?

 

While we do as much as we can to treat and manage your injuries (whether it be joint injuries or muscle injuries) in our one-on-one sessions, rehab, most importantly, requires clear goals, transparency, and effort.

 

Ensure you have a goal in mind for what you want to achieve with our physiotherapy sessions, whether it may be eliminating pain, increasing mobility, or preventing re-injury; whether it be acute injuries, ongoing issues, or the need for a dedicated progressive exercise program to follow.

 

If you’re in need of pain treatment and rehab, but you don’t know where to begin – that’s okay! Our sports physios are trained to ask the right questions to help you unlock your goals – whether that’s achieving peak athletic performance, or simply to get back playing sports without pain.

 

With a clear goal and a rehab roadmap, you are much more likely to see positive results in terms of your movement, strength, and balance.

 

 

What do I need to share with Infinite Health's sports physio Sydney?

 

Sharing your fitness and sports goals with your Sydney sports physio is crucial to both parties understanding the methodology and path to rehabilitation. With a good working relationship with your sports physio, your treatment will be more productive, and you can feel confident you are working towards your goals. During your first appointment, our Sydney physiotherapy practice will provide pain relief, work to understand whether you're facing muscle or joint injuries, prepare an injury management plan, and help you to implement injury prevent to avoid further injury down the line.

 

At our Infinite Health physiotherapy and sports clinic, we see everyone from elite athletes to those facing work related injuries. Once we've worked out which muscle groups are affected, we can start the rehabilitation process.

 

Do I need to follow my physio treatment plan? 

​

Following your tailored treatment plan is essential to beating your injury, meeting your rehabilitation goals, and further prevention.

 

If you think something is not working or an exercise is causing pain, don't be afraid to communicate your concerns, so your Sydney sports physio can adjust your plan to be more effective.

 

 

Is sports physiotherapy better than physiotherapy?

 

While being quite similar to physiotherapy, sports therapy is a more focused branch of physiotherapy that is tailored specifically to injury prevention, pain management, and conditioning for sports activity. Sports physiotherapy may involve increasing core stability, dry needling, manual therapy, or post operative rehabilitation. Generally, this will include creating a progressive exercise program by our Sydney physiotherapy experts.

 

As physiotherapy is helpful for a broader range of illnesses and conditions, each discipline is ultimately more suited for different types of patients. 

​

Our Sydney physiotherapy team offer both general and sports physiotherapy, whether you are injured from sporting activities, or you have an issue that is not sports related. 

 

​

What is a remedial sports therapy massage?

 

Remedial massage therapy applied by our sports physio targets specific damaged, tensed, or immobile muscles in the body.

 

As a treatment system, it is designed to locate and repair damaged regions of the body to speed up natural healing and recovery.

 

For patients, remedial massage is particularly effective for several musculoskeletal issues, tackling both the symptoms and causes.
