Sports chiropractor on the Gold Coast
Sports injury care to get you back to comfortable movement
From weekend sport to regular training, an injury can interrupt the activities you enjoy. Our sports chiropractors assess the problem, your movement and your goals before recommending care.
Understanding your symptoms
Sports and exercise injuries may result from a sudden incident, repeated load or a change in training. The painful area is important, but strength, mobility and movement elsewhere can also influence how the body manages activity.
Our multidisciplinary Southport team works with active people at different levels. We focus on understanding the problem, reducing aggravating factors and supporting a considered return to movement.
What to expect
Your first visit starts with a conversation about your symptoms, health history and goals. We then assess the areas that may be contributing to the problem and explain what we find.
- A review of the injury, training load and activities that matter to you
- Movement and hands-on assessment tailored to the affected area
- A practical explanation of aggravating and supporting factors
- Referral for imaging or another opinion when clinically appropriate
Care may include
Recommendations are based on your assessment and preferences. If care at our clinic is not appropriate, we will explain the next step and refer you when needed.
When to seek urgent care
Seek urgent medical assessment after significant trauma, or if an injury involves a visible deformity, inability to bear weight, loss of feeling, marked weakness, a cold or pale limb, chest pain or difficulty breathing.
