Exercise Rehabilitation in Lower Limb Injury

Questions and Answers

Q

What are the 5 key stages of rehabilitation for any sportsperson, regardless of plinth, gym or pitch-based rehabilitation?

A

Answer

Mobility – Following injury, re-developing a full range of movement at the joint(s) involved is essential in order to ensure normal biomechanics are restored.

Stability – This return of movement needs to be supported proximally, centrally and distally to the site of injury to ensure joint range is controlled in both a non and weight bearing state.

Controlled mobility – If mobility and stability are achieved then controlled mobility will naturally follow as normal upper limb, torso, pelvic and lower limb movement patterns are re-introduced to the recovery process.

Load – Structurally, appropriate load to healing tissue will continue to help the re-modelling process. Weight bearing needs to be introduced as safely and quickly as possible to reduce muscle atrophy and prevent abnormal movement patterns.

Skill – All sport requires a skill component and this needs to be incorporated into all rehabilitation programmes at the earliest possible opportunity to ensure performance is not delayed longer than necessary when unable to compete.
