Sport Injury Consultation

Injury to an athlete is typically an unexpected occurrence. The initial shock of finding oneself on the side-lines instead of participating in training and competition can be a difficult and frustrating situation.

These consultations assist the athlete in reducing the psychological impact of injury and help maintain a performance oriented mind set during rehabilitation so re-entry to competition is a smooth transition.

The athlete is supported in developing positive coping skills and healthy self management techniques during recovery from injury.

Techniques that may be used for sport injury treatment are:

• Goal-setting
• Biofeedback
• EMDR
• Relaxation training
• Visualization
• Individual psychotherapy
