Our Range of Services

Our Sports Medicine Clinic offers a comprehensive range of services for children, adolescents and women of all ages and fitness levels:

  • Diagnosis and treatment of sport injuries
    Our team of sport physicians, physiotherapists and fitness specialists help women and junior athletes who have acute or chronic overuse injuries modify their training regime, correct biomechanical errors, and use physical therapies and reconditioning to resume sports participation as soon as possible. If surgery is found necessary, our sports orthopaedic surgeons apply the most current technology to aid the recovery process.
  • Diagnosis and treatment of medical problems affecting sports and exercise performance
    Those who exercise regularly sometimes encounter common medical problems that may affect their sports performance – exercise induced asthma, concerns relating to overweight or underweight, or menstrual irregularity, to name a few. Our sports physicians work collaboratively with respective medical specialists to provide seamless and sports focused medical care.
  • Management of sports and physical performance issues
    Our sports physicians and dieticians can help you address other performance-related issues such as strength, conditioning, dietary and hydration strategies in sports, the use of supplements to enhance performance etc.
  • Pre-participation medical evaluation
    A medical assessment before sports or exercise participation helps to identify conditions that may predispose one to injury during sports or exercise. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to avoid or reduce potential injuries and complications.
  • Fitness Assessment and Exercise Prescription
    All women and children, whether healthy or suffering from chronic conditions, can benefit from planned exercise training. Through a baseline fitness assessment, our sports physicians can help you design a safe exercise programme to fulfil your fitness or health goals. Exercise programmes are carried out in a fully equipped gym and supervised by our physiotherapists or fitness trainers
