It helps prevent injuries, improving performance by rebalancing posture and eliminating any tensions and overloads.<\/p>\n<p>Physical activity brings enormous benefits, but it is also often the cause of injuries, especially in contact sports, where knocks and bumps occur on a daily basis.<\/p>\n<p>In professional sports, injuries are almost inevitable, given the intensity of training and competitions. In this context, the osteopath has become an integral part of the team <em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.blubasket.it\/\"><strong>Blubasket Treviglio<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/em><strong><span style=\"color: #4a828c;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">, a professional team in Italy.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Professional athletes use osteopathic treatment to keep their bodies in top physical shape, as well as being a way of treating or relieving existing pain and injuries.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The most common sports injuries are strains, sprains and inflammation, affecting tendons, muscles and ligaments, as well as swelling, bruising and areas of pain or muscle soreness.<\/p>\n<p>Osteopathy works by considering the whole person and not just the point of pain. <strong>In cases of injury, the osteopath treats the athlete as a unit, releasing any overloads that limit recovery.<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Osteopathy and prevention<\/h2>\n<p>Sports osteopathy is often used by athletes as a preventative method, to keep the body in optimum condition and to reduce the risk of possible injuries.<\/p>\n<p>This happens thanks to the general assessment of the athlete and the treatment of the areas of greatest tension.<\/p>\n<p>To be most effective in prevention, the athlete must be monitored 360\u00b0, so from both a physical point of view (Physical Trainer, Physiotherapist, Osteopath, Nutritionist) and a mental point of view, thanks to the support of a mental coach or psychotherapist.<\/p>\n<p>There are sports and activities that tend to overload one part of the body or even one joint of the body. If we think of tennis, for example, we can&#8217;t help but mention tennis elbow, just as those who practise jumping sports will have greater overload in the knee (jumper&#8217;s knee).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>The most common sports injuries:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Tennis elbow<\/li>\n<li>Back pain and golf<\/li>\n<li>Patellar tendinopathy<\/li>\n<li>Swimmer&#8217;s shoulder<\/li>\n<li>Pubalgia<\/li>\n<li>Hip pain<\/li>\n<li>Running injuries<\/li>\n<li>Running prevention<\/li>\n<li>Crossfit injuries<\/li>\n<li>Muscle injury<\/li>\n<li>Plantar fasciitis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3862,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-4972","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
