Injury Rehabilitation in Leicestershire and Rutland

Injury rehabilitation:

following the comprehensive assessment of your mobility, strength, balance and proprioception, a progressive exercise based program will be initiated, alongside the use of massage, heat and cryotherapy techniques; putting you back on the road to recovery and personal potential.

Sports Therapy aids the restoration of movement, function and strength during recovery. Rehabilitation specific to your sport will assist an early return to activity. Sports related injuries benefit from early intervention; this prevents an acute injury from becoming chronic and helps to ensure that further problems do not arise.

All levels of athletes can be catered for from elite to recreational. Some common injuries within the general population are:

Ankle Sprains
Knee ligament / Cartilage Injury
Patello-Femoral (Knee Cap) Problems
Running Injuries
Direct Injury from Contact Sport
Shoulder Pain from Throwing / Overhead Activity

Back, neck and shoulder pain:

The majority of spinal complaints are not serious and have a “mechanical” origin.  Sports Therapy offers exercise based treatment for specific problems, taylored exercise plans and effective advice for self-management and future prevention.

Degenerative conditions (spondylosis, arthrosis)
