Increasing awareness about the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle has made many people take up sports and include exercise in their daily lives. But many a times due to lack of proper guidance, these very activities which are supposed to make one healthy and fit, lead to injuries. This, in turn, can hinder physical movement and discourage one from pursuing it, thus putting a stop to a beneficial and enjoyable activity.

In order to ensure that nothing comes between you and your health, Manipal Hospitals has introduced the Department of Sports Medicine. This unique facility is one of its kind in the country and offers a range of services for athletes and any individual who wants to achieve better health. This department is dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of persons affected by musculoskeletal injuries arising due to sport, exercise or any other recreational activity. The team of specialists in the department of Sports Medicine manage many sport related injuries like concussions, shin injuries, muscle cramps and sprains among others.
