Sports Rehabilitation

About the treatment

Sports rehabilitation combines advanced techniques to accelerate recovery for athletes and active individuals. We use complete functional assessment, progressive therapeutic exercises and cutting-edge technologies to ensure a safe return to sport.

What is it?

Sports rehabilitation is a specialized area of physiotherapy focused on recovery from sports and physical activity-related injuries. It goes beyond pain recovery: the goal is to return the athlete to the same (or higher) performance level they had before the injury, using evidence-based protocols.

Who is it for?

Recommended for professional and amateur athletes who have suffered sports injuries such as ligament tears, muscle injuries, tendinopathies or stress fractures. Also serves practitioners of activities like running, surfing, football, CrossFit, cycling and weight training in Florianópolis.

How does the treatment work?

We use a complete functional assessment with sport-specific tests. The protocol includes progressive phases: pain and inflammation control, range of motion recovery, muscle strengthening, neuromuscular training and gradual return to sport with objective discharge criteria.

Session duration and frequency

Sessions last 50 to 60 minutes, attending 2 to 3 times per week. Total rehabilitation time varies: muscle injuries may take 4 to 8 weeks, while ACL reconstruction can take 6 to 12 months.

Expected results

Return to sport follows objective criteria: symmetrical strength, joint stability and movement confidence. Our goal is not only recovery but injury prevention through personalized prevention programs.
