Rugby Injury Physiotherapy in Hamilton
Active Health Waikato
Injuries might be part of the game – but staying stuck with them doesn’t have to be. At Active Health Hamilton, we help rugby players recover properly, return confidently, and perform without second-guessing their body.
Whether it’s a shoulder that won’t stay in place, a knee that doesn’t feel stable, or a hammy that keeps flaring up – we’re here to help you get back to your best.
Common Rugby Injuries We Treat
- Shoulder dislocations and instability
- ACL, MCL, and meniscus injuries
- Hamstring strains and calf tears
- Lower back pain from repeated contact or poor mobility
- Ongoing ankle sprains and joint instability
What’s Holding Your Recovery Back?
You might’ve been told to “just rest it” or “strap it and see how it goes”—but that’s not a plan.
Without the right rehab, rugby injuries keep coming back—just at the worst possible time. What we see all the time:
- Players returning too soon because pain is low—but strength is still poor
- Confusion about what to do: gym? tape? ice?
- Lack of game-specific rehab that actually prepares your body for contact
- Hesitation before tackles, scrums, or explosive movements
- Constant tightness, stiffness, or re-injury that’s draining your confidence
Don’t Let Injury End Your Season Early
If you’re a school player, club player, or seasoned veteran—now’s the time to act. Rugby demands more than rest. Let’s rebuild your performance properly.
- Return to full strength
- Avoid the re-injury cycle
- Train and play with confidence
