Weight training injuries

We can offer help for the following weight training injuries:

Muscle strains

Muscle strains occur when the muscle fibres or tendon fibbers are torn as a result of overstretching or overloading. They can range from small tears with mild pain to a large amount of torn fibres, resulting in significant swelling and a loss of strength and mobility.

Knee pain

Knee pain is caused by weightlifting injuries such as patellar tendonitis – the inflammation of the knee. This is the result of the tendon becoming too tight or overused during lifts which include squats and lunges.

Neck pain

Neck pain can result from the overuse of the muscles in the neck and shoulder, strain on the joints in the neck, or a pinched nerve in the area. They are often caused by poor posture during weight lifting.
