Football injuries can result from either direct contact or changes in training load and volume. While contact injuries are challenging to prevent, injuries caused by altered training loads can be effectively managed with proper rehabilitation. By thoroughly addressing these load-related injuries, we can strengthen the injured areas, potentially improving them beyond their pre-injury condition to reduce the risk of re-injury.
Hamstring injuries are particularly common in football, often occurring when the hamstrings’ capacity to handle increased loads is reduced. To prevent these injuries, it’s crucial to strengthen the hamstrings so they can better cope with the demands of intensified training sessions or an increased game schedule.
We also offer football performance profiles to assess your leg strength and power. Using cutting-edge VALD Forcedecks and dynamometry, we gather precise data on your current condition and track progress after prescribing individualised, focused strength and rehab exercises. This allows us to help you prevent future injuries while optimising your performance on the field.
By optimising strength and managing training load, you can reduce the risk of common football injuries like hamstring strains, ACL injuries, and other muscle injuries, ensuring long-term health and performance.
