Injury Prevention
Starting an activity, returning after a break or increasing its demands can raise questions about preparation. Injury prevention focuses on understanding those demands and reducing avoidable risks.

Care with your goals in mind
Preparing for your activity
You may be starting a sport, returning after time away or finding that an old difficulty affects a new activity. Your history, current activity and intended demands provide a useful starting point.
Assessing relevant movement
The assessment may explore movements used in your activity and areas where strength or control make a task difficult. It is a way to identify useful preparation, not a test that can predict every future injury.
Making practical adjustments
Guidance may cover building activity gradually, preparing for its demands and recognising when to adjust the workload. Recommendations depend on your assessment and the activity you want to pursue.
Reviewing as demands change
A return visit may help when your activity increases or a difficulty persists. You can review how the advice is working and whether preparation needs to change with your goals.
