Sports Injury Treatment in Kensington and Chelsea

From gold medalists to weekend warriors, sports injuries can stop you doing what you love. At West London Physiotherapy, we help athletes and active people recover quickly, return safely, and get back to peak performance with confidence.

Common Sports Injuries We Treat

Our sports physiotherapists regularly treat:

  • Muscle strains and ligament sprains
  • Tendon injuries (Achilles, hamstring, rotator cuff, tennis elbow)
  • Joint problems (shoulder, knee, hip, ankle)
  • Back and neck injuries from sport
  • Overuse conditions (shin splints, plantar fasciitis)
  • Post-surgery recovery (ACL, meniscus, shoulder stabilisation)

Who We Help

We work with:

  • Elite athletes, amateurs, and weekend warriors across all sports
  • Active people who want to stay fit, healthy, and injury-free

Whatever your level, we tailor treatment to your goals — whether that’s crossing a marathon finish line, returning to competition, or simply enjoying your favourite activity pain-free.

Our Approach to Sports Injury Care

Your recovery starts with a detailed assessment of your injury, biomechanics, and training demands. From there, we build a plan that may include:

  • Manual therapy and joint mobilisation
  • Exercise rehabilitation and strength training
  • Shockwave therapy for stubborn tendon injuries
  • Dry needling and muscle release techniques
  • Movement retraining, gait analysis, and injury prevention strategies

We don’t just get you back to sport — we help you come back stronger and reduce the risk of future injury.

Integrated Care and Referrals

As part of our wider multidisciplinary network, we can:

  • Refer directly for X-rays and MRI scans
  • Prescribe medication when appropriate
  • Arrange fast access to trusted surgeons and sports doctors for injections or surgery

This ensures you get the right care at every stage of your recovery.
