Physiotherapy That Understands Aerial and Pole Athletes
Aerial and pole disciplines demand a rare combination of grip strength, overhead control, flexibility and full-body power — and they load the body in ways most sports simply don’t. Whether you train on silks, lyra, hoop, trapeze or pole, injuries in these disciplines need a physiotherapist who understands what your training actually involves.
At Progress Physiotherapy, we treat the injuries unique to aerial and pole training and build recovery plans around your apparatus, your skill level and the moves you want to get back to — so you can return to the air with strength and confidence.
Common Aerial & Pole Injuries We Treat
- Shoulder pain, instability and rotator cuff injuries
- Wrist, forearm and grip-related overuse
- Elbow pain and tendinopathy
- Neck and upper back strain
- Hamstring strains from flexibility training
- Hip flexor and lower back pain
- Nerve irritation from wraps and holds
- Knee and ankle injuries from drops and dismounts
Getting You Back in the Air
We start by understanding your discipline and your injury in context — the apparatus you train on, your training load, and exactly which moves or holds bring on your symptoms. From there, you’ll get a clear diagnosis and a treatment plan built around your training.
Rather than telling you to simply stop training, we’ll show you what to modify, what to keep, and how to progress — combining hands-on treatment with overhead strength conditioning and safe flexibility progression, plus a graded return-to-training plan to reduce the risk of re-injury.
We welcome Medicare (EPC), DVA, TAC, WorkSafe and NDIS patients, with HICAPS available for on-the-spot private health claims.
