Sports Injury Treatment
As sports therapists we have a greater understanding of pathologies and biomechanical factors which influence a sports injury and with this knowledge and my experience of working with professional and semi professional athletes you will be assured of the most appropriate and up to date treatment.
Deep tissue and cross friction treatment is essential to re-align fibres and prevent a repeat injury to the same muscle. I will provide you with specific treatment plans and an exercise sheet after the consultation process has been completed.
Ultrasound Treatment
Ultrasound is used for the treatment of sports injuries to help reduce pain, swelling and muscle spasm.
The increase in blood flow and greater production of mast cells aids the production of collagen. Scar tissue is reduced due to the ability of ultrasound to breakdown the fibrous adhesions. Ultrasound also increases the proliferation of phase tissue healing and can reduce the time taken for injury treatment, therefore ensuring a speedy return to the activities that you enjoy.
A Sports Massage Therapist contributes to treating injuries and educates clients in preventative techniques.
Sports Therapy will benefit anyone with a hectic active lifestyle in the Ipswich area and can go a long way in improving quality of life and sports enjoyment.
Tennis Elbow, RSI, release of tension and pain relief are a few of the more common ailments that a Sports Therapist is able to treat effectively with Sports Massage Therapy in the Ipswich area.
"Contrary to popular belief sports therapy is not just for sports people - the massage and manipulation techniques used have helped ordinary people like you and I, many who have never played sport" Jon Bray.
