Sports massage and sports strapping

To prevent sporting injuries and to help you recover after exercise, we offer a full sports massage and sports strapping service.

Sports massage

Sports massage involves manipulation and rehabilitation of soft body tissue, i.e. muscles, ligaments and tendons. This will help alleviate the stress and tension which builds up in the body’s soft tissues during physical activity leading to faster recovery and lessening the possibility of future sporting injury.

Sports strapping

Sports strapping has become quite common amongst sportsmen and women of all levels. Strapping of joints by a qualified physiotherapist prior to physical activity is useful for the prevention of injury and to support tendons and ligaments during the rehabilitation of a prior injury. Expertly applied sports strapping will effectively restrict joint and muscle movement reducing the risk of injury and speeding injury recovery.

Specialist sports training programmes

Prevention is always better than cure. The team at Advanced Rehab can help you develop a training programme that is specific to you and your sport. A specialised sports training programme will help you develop strength and stamina in the right areas, ultimately preventing injury and improving recovery time.
