What is Sports Therapy?

Sports Therapy is a hands on manual therapy that caters for clients who have acute or chronic musculoskeletal pain. All treatment comes with a postural assessment and an individual exercise protocol for complete recovery. It uses a combination of Soft Tissue Work, Mobilisations, Massage with Movement, Trigger Point Therapy, Sports Massage, and Stretching Techniques to address your problem.

Conditions Treated:

I can help you with: back pain, sciatica, neck and shoulder tension, whiplash, rotator cuff syndrome, frozen shoulder, carpel tunnel, tennis and golfers elbow, knee joint and knee ligament injuries, ankle sprains, shin splints, tendonitis and postural problems.  

What can you expect from a Treatment Session?

I offer a professional, personal and confidential service designed to meet your specific condition. Individual treatment plans are specifically developed to suit you. I cater for all aspects of pain and injury management that can occur in your daily or sporting life as well as offering expertise in preventing and managing your injury.  

At your first session I will take an extensive history, this is then followed by functional assessments and Specific Tests may be carried out. The history taking and functional assessments are essential in order for me to accurately diagnose the problem and your Treatment will be based on the diagnosis. The remainder of the session involves treatment. Follow up sessions involve more treatment and less assessment. You will also be responsible in aiding your recover through home care exercises.
