Overuse Injury

Damage to bones, muscles, tendons, or ligaments caused by repetitive microtrauma that exceeds the tissue's ability to repair itself between bouts of activity.

What is Overuse Injury?

Overuse injuries develop gradually and include conditions like stress fractures, tendinitis, bursitis, and shin splints. They are common in runners, swimmers, overhead athletes, and anyone performing repetitive movements. Treatment requires identifying contributing factors such as training errors, biomechanical issues, and recovery deficits.

Who is it for?

Athletes and active individuals with gradual-onset pain that worsens with activity, particularly those who have recently increased training volume or intensity.

Benefits

  • Load management strategies optimize recovery
  • Biomechanical analysis corrects movement faults
  • Regenerative therapies support tissue healing
