Sports Injury Rehab around Carnegie for ACL Ruptures and Tears
One of the most common knee injuries that happen in runners and other athletes is the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) tear or rupture. The ACL is one of two very important ligaments that function to stabilise the knee joints by restraining excess knee movements. When you have an ACL injury, it can debilitate your athletic performance by restricting your movements and slowing you down. At Run Ready, the ACL injury is just one of the sports injuries we treat. Our sports physiotherapists near Carnegie will work on reducing inflammation, controlling and managing the pain, restoring your range of motion, developing muscle control, and teaching you how to care for your knee during and after sports injury rehab.
We are excited to offer physio lead small rehabilitation classes. To optimised your rehab it’s critical to recondition your body through a detailed strength and return to running program. Our rehab classes will expertly guide you through this process in our state of the art gym.
