The resorption and formation of bone occurs through two bone cells, osteoblasts and osteoclasts (Rucci 2008, p. 49). Osteoblasts are the cells involved in the secretion of organic and non-organic components of the bone and allow the formation of new bone in the bone remodeling phase, osteoclasts are the bone cell that inhibits the formation of new bone and allows the healing process of the bone (Porth 2012, pp. 1086 - 1087). Complications that can occur in the remodeling and healing phase are the loss of bone tissue and the onset of other skeletal disorders, such as osteoporosis and a deficit in the connection of bone marrow function (Rucci 2008, p. 49). Soft tissue injuries refer to injuries that involve soft tissues within the body, including muscles, tissues, blood vessels, cartilage, and tendons. When a soft tissue injury occurs, the human body is unable to function and work accurately to protect and support the structure of other body systems (Sports Medicine Australia 2015). Most soft tissue injuries are acute and are the result of a traumatic event that has occurred and the body's tissues are unable to hold the additional stress they are subjected to (Sports Medicine Australia
