When should you book with a sports physiotherapist?

You do not need to wait until the pain becomes unbearable. An early assessment helps you understand what is happening and how to return to training without rushing.

Pain when training

If pain appears every time you run, jump, lift or increase your training load.

Recent injury

If you have had a muscle injury, sprain, tendinopathy or overload and you are not sure how to get back to activity.

Relapses

If you improve for a few days, return to training and the pain comes back again.

Return to sport

If you want to return to running, playing or competing with a clear progression adapted to your case.

Frequently asked questions about sports physiotherapy in Barcelona

Quick answers before booking.

What is sports physiotherapy?
Sports physiotherapy is the branch of physiotherapy focused on preventing, treating and recovering from injuries related to sport and physical activity. We do not only treat pain: we also plan your return to training.
What injuries do you treat?
We treat muscle injuries, tendinopathies, sprains, plantar fasciitis, shin splints, sports-related low back pain, overloads and other common training-related issues.
When should I book an appointment?
If pain limits you, if you have not improved after several days, if you have had a relapse or if you want a clear assessment to return to training safely, it is a good time to book an appointment.
How much does sports physiotherapy cost in Barcelona?
The first assessment and treatment visit lasts 60 minutes and costs €50. Follow-up sessions last 50 minutes and cost €45.
How many sessions do I need to recover?
It depends on the type of injury, how long it has been present and your goals. After the initial assessment, we give you a treatment plan and an approximate progression.

Sports physiotherapy focuses on reducing pain, improving tissue condition and recovering function. Sports reconditioning is the next step: progressing strength, impact and sport-specific tasks until you return to competition.
