What is Sports Medicine ?

'Sports Medicine' is dedicated for prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of all musculoskeletal injuries and the enhancement of performance in daily physical activities of all age groups.
It is important to understand that Sports Medicine is not only for sportspersons. It is for every individual in the community who is or wants to be active. Whether you're a weekend warrior or an Olympian, you must always seek a doctor’s help to deal with your injuries and work with them through the entire recovery process. The main objective should be to return  to your chosen activities, whether at work or at play, stronger and more capable than ever before. It is advised and encouraged that you have regular screening for musculoskeletal parameters  that may lead to injury, and  work with physios, trainers and coaches to eliminate them. If an injury should occur, ensure that your condition is swiftly assessed by uniquely trained and qualified Sports Medicine Specialists.
