At Physiocare, we focus on the effective treatment and prevention of sports injuries, ensuring you can continue to enjoy your favourite activities. Serving the Mooloolaba community from our Maroochydore clinic, we offer tailored physiotherapy, exercise and rehabilitation services to help you recover and stay injury-free.
Sports injuries generally occur during physical activity or sports, often due to accidents, overuse or insufficient warm-up. Sports such as running, hockey, Jiu-Jitsu and football are common culprits, as they involve repetitive movements, high impact and physical strain.
Our team of physiotherapists employs a range of evidence-based practices to address the various injuries that can occur through these sports. Physiotherapy is important for not only treating the immediate injury but also for promoting long-term recovery and preventing recurrence.
By using a combination of manual therapy, exercise prescription and modern treatment modalities, we help you regain strength, improve flexibility and enhance overall performance. With our patient-centred approach, we strive to provide the best possible outcomes for your health and performance. To book with our sports physios, contact

Conditions We Treat
At Physiocare, we offer care for a wide range of sports injuries, with tailored treatments for each condition:
- Ligament Tears: Ligament tears, such as those affecting the ACL in the knee, often result from high-impact sports or sudden changes in direction. These injuries disrupt joint stability and cause significant pain and swelling. Treatment typically ranges from physiotherapy to surgical intervention and extensive rehabilitation to ensure proper recovery and joint function restoration.
- Overuse Injuries: Overuse injuries, including tendinitis, stress fractures and shin splints, develop from repetitive stress on muscles, tendons and bones. Continuous microtrauma leads to inflammation and persistent pain. Treatment generally involves rest, activity modification and targeted exercises, supported by physiotherapy to address biomechanical issues and strengthen affected areas.
- Tendonitis: Tendonitis is caused by repetitive motion and overuse, commonly affecting the shoulders, elbows and knees. Sports such as tennis, golf and running are frequent causes. Treatment focuses on reducing inflammation with rest, ice, anti-inflammatory medications and physiotherapy, including exercises to improve technique and prevent recurrence.
- Stress Fractures: Stress fractures are small cracks in bones caused by repetitive force or overuse, often seen in athletes involved in running and jumping sports. These fractures cause localised pain and tenderness in weight-bearing bones like the tibia and metatarsals. Treatment involves rest, activity modification and a gradual return to activity, supported by rehabilitation to strengthen bones and improve biomechanics.
We also address other sports-related injuries including sprains and strains. Contact us to learn more about our treatments.
