When you think of sports therapy, you often imagine an injured pro or semi pro athlete attending for rehab and support and this can be true but we think the name sports therapist is misleading. We like to think of our sports therapist as a rehabilitation guru.

So what does a rehab guru do then? For anyone who may have body injuries such as plantar fasciatis, rotator cuff problems, tendonitis, golfers or tennis elbow then a sports therapist may ne just the ticket for you. If you are a desk worker and find yourself looking increasingly round shouldered then your muscles are probably not working in harmony and so a sports therapist may be the right person is helping to restore equilibrium to your musculoskeletal structure.

Sports therapy appointments start with a consultation to examine you and find out what is going on and causing your problem. From here, your spors therapist will be able to come up with a care plan to help you. This may include, massage, taping, rehab exercises and perhaps even working with other members of our team to bring you back or into your best physical shape.

If you are training for a special event such as a marathon or iron man then our sports therapist can create a package of care to best help you prepare and reduce your risk of injury pre and post event.

If you aren’t sure if a sports therapist is for you, just ask when you call and our colleagues will advise you.
