Sports therapy is specifically concerned with the prevention of injury and the rehabilitation of an individual back to optimum levels of functional, occupational or sports specific fitness regardless of age and ability
Our qualified sports therapist will have the knowledge and ability to:-
Assess in detail the nature and cause of injury, musculoskeletal imbalance or disfunction.
Use a range of treatment techniques including cryotherapy, mobilisation, taping and strapping, electrotherapy, soft tissue manipulation and exercise prescription.
Implement appropriate rehabilitation and corrective exercise programmes.
Place a huge emphasis on educating every individual so that they fully understand the nature and cause of their injury or complaint and their proposed treatment plan and timescales
Our sports therapy team are able to draw from a wide range of knowledge and experience in order to offer the most appropriate treatment and treatment techniques for your individual needs.
We actively encourage self management and optimum performance through education, advising methods of self treatment and how you can prevent further problems. Therefore if you do not understand why you have been given certain exercises, what your injury is, or why you are still coming to see us, then we have not done our job properly.
Testimonials:
“Excellent for diagnosis and explaining WHY the patient has the problem. Massage is as strong as is acceptable to attain a more permanent relief. Exercises are also explained fully with the further advantage of having them emailed for further reference. The aggravated part of the body feels greatly relieved and relaxed afterwards – wonderful!”
