Sports medicine
The sports physician assesses injuries and overuse complaints in athletes of every level: from runners and cyclists to footballers and dancers. We look for the cause behind the complaint and help you return to your sport safely.
Clear diagnosis · return-to-sport plan · close cooperation
Our approach
Our sports physician combines a careful examination with ultrasound in the treatment room and, where needed, further imaging. That way you quickly know what is going on.
Together with our sports physiotherapists we make a plan that fits your goals, whether that is a marathon in the spring or simply playing football with your children again.
What we treat
Assessment
- Sports medical examination
- A complete examination of heart, lungs and musculoskeletal system before you start a new sport or competition season.
- Ultrasound in the treatment room
- Direct imaging of tendons, muscles and joints, so treatment can start right away.
Common injuries
- Running injuries
- Shin splints, runner's knee and Achilles complaints, treated with load management and targeted exercises.
- Tendon complaints
- Long-standing tendon pain around the knee, hip, elbow or ankle, with an evidence-based programme.
- Stress fractures
- Early recognition and a careful build-up, so the bone gets time to heal.
