Our physiotherapy practices in Salzburg and Abtenau are aimed at people with orthopaedic complaints, at patients after injuries or surgery, and at athletes who want to build their resilience in a targeted way. Whether acute complaints, chronic pain or follow-up care after an operation – every physiotherapy treatment begins with a thorough assessment and is individually tailored to your situation, your goals and your everyday life.
Typical conditions that patients come to us with include back and neck pain, knee and shoulder problems, and complaints following sports injuries. We combine manual therapy with active, functional training to not only relieve symptoms but to address the underlying causes. This creates a treatment plan that meaningfully combines rehabilitation, prevention and load progression – whether you are looking for your first physio in Salzburg or are already in rehabilitation.
At the Salzburg City location, physiotherapists with a sports medicine focus work closely with athletic training and functional diagnostics . This means: you don\u2019t go through isolated therapy steps, but a continuous path from the first symptoms through active rehabilitation to long-term resilience – personally accompanied by a dedicated treatment team.

Sports Physiotherapy in Salzburg & Abtenau
Anyone who is physically active places targeted demands on their body – and when complaints or injuries arise, needs therapy that is aligned with the requirements of sport. Our sports physiotherapy in Salzburg and Abtenau is aimed at elite athletes, ambitious recreational athletes and anyone who wants to return to sport safely after an injury.
The rehabilitation of sports injuries requires more than freedom from pain. It is about rebuilding the resilience that the body needs for the respective sport. After injuries such as an ACL tear we accompany you through the entire load progression – from the first restoration of movement through strength build-up to a structured return to sport. With objective tests, such as our ACL test, we measure your progress and determine when you are ready for sporting loads.
Prevention is another focus: through functional movement analyses we identify weak points and muscular imbalances before they lead to complaints. This way you can work specifically on the areas that reduce your injury risk in sport. Our Movement Score diagnostics give you an objective basis for this.
Physiotherapy for complaints and injuries
Orthopaedic complaints can affect any area of the body. Most frequently we treat patients with back pain and herniated discs, with knee pain – for example after a meniscus tear or ACL tear – as well as shoulder pain and neck complaints. In our physiotherapy practices in Salzburg and Abtenau, a comprehensive assessment identifies the cause and we create a treatment plan tailored precisely to your situation.
After injuries or surgery, structured rehabilitation is crucial to restore full movement and load capacity. Whether after ACL surgery, a meniscus operation or shoulder surgery – we accompany you through every phase of recovery. We go beyond mere symptom treatment and work to ensure you return to everyday life and sport not just pain-free but resilient.
An overview of all conditions and treatment areas can be found on our homepage – from back and knee complaints to shoulder and neck problems through to sports injuries and rehabilitation after surgery.
Rehabilitation and return to sport
Rehabilitation for us means more than restoring range of motion and freedom from pain. It is about the targeted transition from treatment to active load progression – and ultimately back to everyday life or sport. In our physiotherapy practices in Salzburg and Abtenau, we structure this process in clear phases so that each step builds on a stable foundation.
Physiotherapy treatment after operations such as ACL or meniscus reconstruction requires a step-by-step approach. In the first weeks, the focus is on restoring movement and pain control before the focus shifts to strength build-up and load progression. Our physiotherapists in Salzburg accompany you through every phase and continuously adapt the treatment to your progress.
In the first phase, acute treatment is the priority: reduce swelling and pain, restore movement, carry out the first targeted activations. This is followed by strength build-up – we train the muscle groups that stabilise and relieve the injured joint in a targeted way. Functional training then increasingly integrates complex movement patterns that are relevant to your everyday life or your sport.
Return to sport is the final step: with sport-specific tests and load progressions, we determine when you are ready to resume full sporting loads. The goal is not just that you can do sport again – but that you do it with confidence, knowing that your body can handle the load.
