How We Rehabilitate Sports Injuries

Manual Therapy: Hands-on joint mobilisation and soft-tissue techniques to reduce pain and restore early movement.
Dry Needling: Sterile, single-use filament needles used to release stubborn trigger points and persistent muscle tightness, paired with movement.
Loaded Exercise Rehabilitation: Progressive strength and tendon loading designed for your sport, the gold standard for tendon and post-surgical recovery.
Shoulder and Running Injury Testing: Clinical tests for rotator cuff, impingement, SLAP-type symptoms, Achilles load tolerance, shin splints, and overuse patterns.
Return-to-Play Testing: Functional tests (single-leg hop, isokinetic strength comparisons, sport-specific agility) before we clear you to return.
Electrotherapy and Ultrasound: Adjunct modalities used selectively to manage acute pain and inflammation, never in place of active rehabilitation.

What to expect from sports rehabilitation in Dubai

Your programme is built around the demands of your sport and the tissue that is healing. We do not clear return to training from pain levels or calendar dates alone.

  1. 1

    Assess the injury and sport

    We examine movement, strength, stability, training load, injury history, and the exact actions that reproduce symptoms.

  2. 2

    Rebuild capacity

    Pain settles while strength, tendon or ligament tolerance, speed, and sport-specific movement are progressed in measurable stages.

  3. 3

    Test the return

    Functional testing and training exposure are used to decide when practice, competition, and full workload are appropriate.

When medical assessment comes first

Major trauma, suspected fracture, a locked joint, head injury symptoms, severe swelling, or an inability to bear weight may need urgent medical or imaging review before rehabilitation begins.

How We Work

Care that goes beyond the clinical room

Real tools that change how you experience your treatment, from the moment you walk in to the day you walk out pain-free.

Live Translation AI

The moment you walk in, our front desk speaks your language. So does your doctor during every consultation and session. Real-time audio translation runs in both directions with zero latency, so we effectively speak every language, not just three.

Physio Cure Connect

Your care continues between visits in Physio Cure Connect. Manage appointments, follow your recovery, review session history and doctor-published clinical updates, message your doctor securely in the Recovery Room, and download invoices on iOS, Android, or the web.

Doctor-guided home exercise plan

Your Recovery Room turns prescribed home exercises into clear, patient-specific guidance: exact dosage, step-by-step technique, start-and-finish visuals, video demonstrations, common mistakes, safety notes, and progression rules.

On-demand consent translation

The digital consent form shows in English and Arabic by default. Speak something else? Pick your language from the drop-down, tap translate, and read the full form in your own language before you sign anything.

Flexible payments

Pay by card, Tabby installments, Ziina, or a private payment link. Whatever works for you.

Why patients choose Dr. Mina Gamil

When you are trying to get back to your sport, the right diagnosis matters more than anything. Patients consistently describe him as a root-cause healer who finds what other clinics missed, and for many of them, he is the first real hope after years of pain and failed attempts.

Insurance-friendly through pay-and-claim

Your insurance still works with us. We hand you a detailed, claim-ready invoice and a medical report your insurer expects, and you submit for reimbursement straight from your portal. The reason we run pay-and-claim instead of direct billing: it keeps your treatment plan doctor-led, designed around what your body needs, not capped by what a network pre-approves.

  1. 1

    You pay your session at the clinic, with flexible options including Tabby installments, Ziina, and standard cards.

  2. 2

    We hand you the detailed invoice and the medical report your insurer needs, the same day.

  3. 3

    You submit for reimbursement to your insurer. We are happy to talk you through what to send.

Tip: a quick call to your insurer before your first visit confirms your physiotherapy coverage and avoids surprises later.
