Sports therapy is an aspect of health care that is specifically concerned with the prevention of injury and the rehabilitation of patients back to optimum levels of fitness regardless of age and ability. These injuries may have been caused by sporting activity but may also be the result of activities such as gardening, repetitive strain or accidents.
Sports therapy combines the principles of physiotherapy with those of sports and excercise sciences in order to prepare the participant for training, competition or simply for work and functional activity.
The use of sports therapy is not limited to amateur or professional athletes. All injuries caused by physical activity can be treated and many patients, even the elderly, benefit from advice regarding activity and injury prevention.
What is Sports Massage?
Doing too much of a particular excercise fatigues muscles and can result in damage. Sports massage is a unique and specialised form of deep tissue massage which aims to improve the normal function of tissues to prevent injury or to restore the function of damaged tissues.
Meg Price practices therapeutic and sports massage, aromatherapy, reflexology and reiki. Adrian Mills has many years experience as a professional sports therapist. Adrian has the knowledge and ability to: - assess and treat injuries using sports massage, electrotherapy and joint metabolism and kinesiology. - implement appropriate rehabilitation programs. - identify, using kinesiology, any nutritional deficiences and provide suppliments where necessary. - use sports and excercise principles to design 'preparation and injury prevention' programs.
