Sports & cricket injury physiotherapy
Cricketers are at risk of lower back pain, hamstring injuries, shoulder strain, and more. Our Physiotherapists at Harmony Physiotherapy are experts in sports injury and can diagnose, address injuries and provide strategies for a safe progression back to the pitch.
Cricket is a unique sport, and cricketers face some unique injuries.
Cricketers have a diverse set of athletic skills in order to perform their best on the pitch. Your unique cricket skills make for an exciting game, but cricketers often also face some unique injuries and challenges which should be addressed by a physiotherapist who is an expert in athletes’ health.
Cricketers can have problems caused by:
Repetitive strain, like from batting, fast bowling, or wicket keeping
Damage to the soft tissues from high-impact movements like running between wickets or running quickly across the field
Impact injuries to the extremities (hands, arms, feet, and legs), and face
Cricketers can experience a wide variety of injuries.
As a cricketer, you might face…
Rotator cuff injuries: Damage to the set of muscles that stabilize your shoulder joints.
Tears in the meniscus: The cartilage around your lower legs, which protect your knee joints during high-impact movements.
Sprains in your ankles and wrists, which can happen from overuse and strain.
Thrower’s elbow: Pain that occurs in the inside of your elbow - think “golfer’s elbow”, as these two conditions are very similar!
Bruising and contusions that can be caused by direct impacts, like being hit with a ball.
Straining your side from all the repetitive bending, twisting, and quick movements you have to make on the pitch.
Lower back pain from all the repetitive bending, twisting, and quick movements you have to make on the pitch.
Finger injuries such as bruising or fractures from the hard impact of a cricket ball.
When it comes to solving something serious like injuries & chronic pain from sports…
You must choose the right provider to help you heal from your injury.
If you don’t, you could end up off the pitch longer than necessary and miss out on feeling like yourself and enjoying the fun of every game.
It’s possible to recover from injuries from cricket and get back onto the pitch, pain-free.
To do that, you have to not just treat the pain but have a provider who can accurately diagnose the issue and administer specialized treatment for the root of the injury, so it does not cause lasting issues. That’s why you need a physiotherapist who specializes in helping athletes get back to the field!
We offer a hands-on approach to your wellness using our clinic’s 3-step recovery method
Step 1: We listen to your story
Finding the help you need for your injury can be exhausting.
You want to find the help you need to get back onto the pitch as soon as possible.
It’s important to address the injury from the root, so it doesn’t continue to impact your life.
That’s why our first step is to have a conversation with you and give you the time to tell your story.
We’ll listen to your pressing concerns with open ears so that we can get you the honest answers you’ve been seeking.
That way we’ll have a deep understanding of what’s going on, not just with your injury, but with your whole body and how it’s impacting your life.
Step 2: We find the cause of your pain
At Harmony Physiotherapy, we’ve worked with many athletes before you, and we know that every injury and body is different and can impact them in different ways.
Your injury might feel too complicated, or that you might be kept off the pitch forever, but it’s not true!
We’ll use our experience and knowledge to take a deep dive together into your specific problem and find out what’s really going on.
That way we’ll discover the original cause of your pain or discomfort, and be able to find a lasting solution so you don’t have to suffer anymore.
Step 3: We create your custom solution
After we hear all about your concerns, the treatments you’ve tried, and what you want to get back to, we’ll use it to create a customized plan of care.
We’ll let you know how we can help, exactly what care will look like, and how long it will take to feel better again.
Then we’ll get rid of your pain and discomfort and work together to get you back to what matters most.
Finally, get relief from your injuries and feel like yourself again!
You don’t have to sacrifice the activities you love over problems that can be fixed.
