Sports Injury Management at Active Health Clinic
At Active Health Clinic Beirut, our osteopaths and physiotherapists specialize in the treatment of sports injuries such as sprains, strains, tendinitis, and bursitis, helping athletes recover faster and prevent recurrence.
Sports injuries are among the most common reasons athletes and active individuals seek medical care. They typically result from acute trauma (a sudden movement, fall, or impact) or from repetitive stress on the joints and muscles during training. In fact, more than 90% of sports injuries involve soft tissue damage affecting the muscles, ligaments, or tendons.
The most frequent injury is the bruise (contusion), but sprains and strains are also extremely common:
-
Sprains involve a partial or complete tear of a ligament, the tissue that connects bones and stabilizes joints.
-
Strains occur when there is damage to a muscle or its tendon, the structure that attaches muscle to bone and enables movement.
In addition, athletes often experience tendinitis (inflammation of a tendon) or bursitis (inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs that cushion tendons around joints). These usually develop due to repetitive micro-trauma and overuse. Left untreated, they can lead to persistent pain and reduced performance.
At Active Health Clinic Beirut, our multidisciplinary team — including osteopaths, physiotherapists, psychiatrists, and nutrition experts — provides comprehensive care for sports injuries. We focus on:
-
