Sports injuries · Toronto's only endurance clinic
Back to training.
With a plan.
The pain went away, then training brought it back. Dr. Devon Savarimuthu, DC, CSCS assesses the injury, explains why it keeps happening, and rebuilds the capacity your sport needs, while you keep training where it's safe.
Short Answer
How Endura treats sports injuries
Dr. Devon treats sports injuries by finding the load pattern behind the pain, then progressively rebuilding the capacity that was missing. The first visit checks the injured area, the joints above and below it, and the sport demands you need to return to. You leave with a plan, milestones, and a clear rule for what you can keep doing while you recover.
"Dr. Devon Savarimuthu, DC, CSCS, says: 'The question is not only what tissue hurts. It is what your sport keeps asking that tissue to tolerate.'"
What makes Endura different for athletes
Dr. Devon holds a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) designation in addition to his Doctor of Chiropractic. Treatment is not just about reducing pain. It is about understanding what your sport demands and building a plan that gets you back to full function.
Most sports injury treatment targets the painful tissue, then clears you once it stops hurting. The CSCS background changes what questions get asked: what does your sport require? What positions does your body need to get into? What is the timeline for your next event? Those answers shape the plan from the start, and you're tested against them before you go back to full load.

The Endura Method for athletes
Assess, treat, rebuild, return. Assessment and treatment begin in the first visit, one-on-one. The plan is tied to your return-to-sport goal, and visit frequency changes as your capacity returns.

You leave with a clinical read on what is likely driving the injury, what to change first, and what the next step should be.
“I've been dealing with a sports hernia / adductor tears for around a year now and have bounced around between various physios and chiros trying to solve this injury. Over the past 6 weeks I've made tremendous progress in my recovery with Devon and I'm confident it will only continue to get better. Devon's approach is so much more comprehensive than what I've experienced before.”
