Injury Assessment & Diagnosis

Sports Injury Assessment and treatment tailored specifically for the individual with our bespoke services we can help you.

 

Rehabilitation massage aids in the management of both acute and chronic injuries. These benefits are valuable not only for athletes, but for anyone who has an injury.

After an acute or chronic injury to the musculoskeletal system it is crucial you receive rehabilitation treatment to firstly reduce pain, remove scar tissue and secondly improve mobility and strength.

At the Sports Injury Centre in Handforth, we use a combination of therapeutic techniques adapted to the individual. We devise a rehabilitation plan together with the client. This will involve:​

Recovery: time for the body to recuperate and begin the healing process. Important during this time to rest to prevent aggravating the injury. Our K-Laser can help reduce inflammation and pain around the injury area,

Repair: easing the body back to pre injury levels of range of motion, soft tissue massage and gentle range of motion exercises are important to not aggravate the injury.

Strength: once range of motion is restored it's important to restore strength. Using our equipment we can show you how to do strength training safely to reduce the risk of re aggravating or risking new injuries.

Function: final stage of the rehabilitation process supports restoring function to pre injury levels. Using a mix of massage skills and equipment within our rehabilitation gym the following can be improved; coordination, change of direction capability, agility and balance.
