Your sports physio experience will include an initial assessment (with an onward referral if required) to ascertain your diagnosis. From there we will use hands-on treatment to optimise your movement patterns and relieve pain. This may include soft tissue therapy, fascial release, joint mobilisations, manipulations, strapping and dry needling (using acupuncture needles if you’re brave enough!). To make these changes permanent (and this is where the real work starts) you will be given education and sport-specific rehab to reaffirm these optimised movement patterns. As your symptoms improve you will be progressed and rehabbed back to your level of sport.
