FAQs — Hockey Injuries in Clarington
What is the most common hockey injury treated at Canadian sports clinics?
Groin strains (adductor strains) are the most common hockey injury requiring physiotherapy, followed by knee injuries (MCL sprains, meniscus), and shoulder separations. Hip flexor injuries and sports hernia (core muscle injury) are also common in elite and senior recreational players.
How long does a hockey groin strain take to heal with physiotherapy?
Grade 1 groin strains typically resolve in 1–3 weeks with physiotherapy. Grade 2 strains take 3–6 weeks. Grade 3 tears or sports hernias may require 8–12 weeks or longer, and occasionally surgery. Early physio intervention significantly reduces recovery time and re-injury risk.
Do Canadian hockey players need a referral for physiotherapy?
No — physiotherapists in all Canadian provinces are primary contact practitioners. You can book directly. For WSIB claims or if your private insurance requires it, you may need a physician's referral for reimbursement. Check your policy before booking.
