MCL STRAIN
MCL strains are more common in athletes who participate in a variety of activities, especially ones that demand sudden changes in direction or impact. Football, soccer, basketball, and wrestling are some of these sports. This is an injury to the medial collateral ligament (MCL), a ligament on the inside knee. The MCL aids in knee joint stabilisation and limits excessive side-to-side movement. At Run Ready, we provide a unique sports physiotherapy model that delivers a professional standard rehabilitation experience. We optimise recovery from all types of injuries via an integrated process of sports physiotherapy and rehab in our state-of-the-art strength and conditioning facility.
Our Coaches Have Worked With
MEDIAL LIGAMENT TEAR
A direct blow or contact to the outside of the knee is the most frequent reason for MCL strains. When the knee is impacted by another player or an item during contact sports like football or soccer, this frequently happens. Our friendly and highly experienced team work collaboratively to formulate a training plan to optimise your sporting performance. With a state-of-the-art training facility, your rehab will be accelerated, returning you to sport sooner and in better condition. Check also related injury treatment for a hamstring strain.
MCL STRAIN TREATMENT
Running, squatting, or leaping without the right technique or fitness can cause the MCL to become increasingly more and more strained over time. Our expert team thoroughly assess injuries using VALD testing equipment, giving unparalleled insight into injury risk, physical deficits and goal setting.
We’d like to provide local athletes with professional level sports rehabilitation through our sports physio programs, helping them return better and stronger to the sport they love.
