Frequently Asked Questions
Who is sports therapy best suited for?
Sports therapy is ideal if you’re active and want to recover properly from injury, return to sport safely, or improve how your body performs under load.
It combines hands-on treatment with structured, gym-based rehabilitation and performance planning.
If your goal is to get back to training stronger, not just pain-free, sports therapy is often the right choice.
Do I need to be an athlete to see a sports therapist?
No.
If you run, go to the gym, play sport recreationally, or simply want to move with strength and confidence, sports therapy can help.
How is sports therapy different from physiotherapy?
At Hatt Clinic, both sports therapy and physiotherapy appointments are delivered by highly trained clinicians who assess, diagnose, and treat musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions.
This means you’ll receive the same high standard of care, whether your issue is related to sport, work, everyday life, or a long-standing problem.
If you’re unsure which option to book, don’t worry. Our team can guide you to the most appropriate appointment based on your symptoms, activity level, and goals.
I’ve pulled a muscle or strained something — should I wait?
No.
Early assessment reduces recovery time and lowers the risk of re-injury. Getting the right guidance early often means getting back to your activities sooner.
Can sports therapy help prevent future injuries?
Yes.
We assess movement quality, strength imbalances and training load to identify risk factors before they become problems. Prevention is far easier, and far quicker than rehabilitation.
I feel nervous returning to the gym after injury — can you help?
Absolutely.
Many injuries reoccur because people return to their activities without structure.
We can guide you step-by-step so you rebuild strength safely and confidently.
What does return-to-sport rehabilitation involve?
Rehabilitation is progressive and goal-specific.
It may include:
- Strength training
- Mobility work
- Load management
- Running or sport-specific drills
- Objective return-to-play testing
You’ll understand exactly what stage you’re at and what needs to happen next to get you where you want to be.
How many sessions will I need?
That depends on the injury and your training goals.
Acute issues may resolve quickly. Performance-based rehab may require a structured programme and take longer.
After your first session, we’ll explain clearly what we recommend and why.
