Sports Therapy is the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of soft tissue injuries (muscle, tendon and ligament).

The objective is to return the patient to full functionality as quickly and safely as possible using treatment methods including massage, mobilisation, ultrasound, and stretching and strengthening programmes.

Sports massage is a major part of the treatment provided, from treating an injury to using massage as a preventive measure for injuries.

Sports massage uses deep massage techniques especially adapted to deal with the stresses and tensions exerted on the body caused by sport, work, DIY and gardening to name just a few.

The benefits of sports massage include:

• Increased flexibility and relaxation
• Decreased muscle stiffness, soreness and pain
• The removal of toxins and lactic acid post work out
• Maintains optimum muscle health and performance
• Prevention of injuries
• Can help boost performance
