Muscle injuries occur when a muscle is unable to stretch any further under load causing it to tear. Muscle injuries can also be related to a sudden blow or repetitive loading. The severity of muscular injuries varies and as a result the timeframe and rehabilitation process also varies. Tear injuries are generally categorised into 3 categories

·      Grade 1 (Mild)

·      Grade 2 (Moderate)

·      Grade 3 (Severe)

Our physiotherapists are experts in diagnosing muscular related injuries and setting realistic management plans and strengthening programs.
