Sports & Remedial Injury Clinic
RMTherapies is a local and private clinic that offers Musculo-Skeletal treatment for all Sporting and Non Sporting conditions. These include Sporting Injuries, Back, Neck, Postural pain as well as muscular and joint conditions.
​
Due to some chronic conditions, Therapy is sometimes not enough, I am excited to introduce the arrival of the new Shockwave Therapy system to my clinic. I am now able to provide the most advanced level of treatment available when normal rehabilitation is not enough.
Treatments
Deep Tissue and Remedial Massage
Promoting Recovery and Improving Blood Flow with Muscle Stimulation
For years, my patients have depended on me to provide them with a high level of both deep tissue and remedial massage treatments. The benefits of massage are extremely positive and can have an immediate and positive effect on a multitude of sporting and non-sporting injuries. I am a Therapist you can trust, and I’m dedicated to building long-lasting relationships based on trust and medical integrity with every single patient.
Shockwave Therapy
Recover From Chronic Injury
Shockwave therapy is a new addition to my clinic, it offers a way of taking chronic injuries back in to the acute stage to help with the healing process. This highly specialised treatment sends a mechanical radial wave deep into the affected area and stimulates a neuro and physiological response. The result of this therapy can take an injury that may have possibly required surgery back into a condition where the body naturally heals. See the Shockwave Therapy page on my site for more info.
Exercise and Rehabilitation
Helping You Recover from Injury
Creating functional and achievable exercise plans tailored for the individual, the rehabilitation of the patient is accelerated by functional exercises and stretching. Specialising in plyometric and strength and conditioning, this provides both the athlete and individual a firm base to achieve their goals and remain injury free.
Acupuncture
Musculo-Skeletal
The use of acupuncture is widely used in musculo-skeletal injuries. The therapeutic release of deep tension in muscles and the effect on trigger points accelerate the recovery of injuries and has a natural pain relief. Certain key points can also have a calming effect on the body, which also has a positive therapeutic effect.
Postural Alignment
Improving Functional Movement
The importance of posture is paramount to healthy living and pain free functional movement. Coupled with manual therapy and strength rehabilitation, correct posture control and movement can be achieved by some basic lifestyle changes and postural retraining.
Kinesiology & Athletic Taping
Performance & Remedial Taping
The use of Kinesiology tape pre and post injury can unload the fascia and muscles. This will allow for a quicker recovery rate and better muscle control. The taping can also assist with postural conditioning. Athletic taping can support and assist with injuries both in prevention and restriction of the movement of certain joints.
Running Gait Video Analyses
Improving your Running Technique
After completing an intensive training program in Functional Running Gait Analysis for Therapists with Tom Goom, I use the Hudl video assessment system to analyse running techniques. Working with the runner to make changes to their style and advising them on the correct footwear keeps them injury free and also increases their performance. Whether you are a C25K or a marathon runner, gait analyses can help you achieve your goals.
Nutrition Advice
Information on Fuel for your Daily and Sporting Life
Nutrition is key to fuel the body during exercise and normal daily living. Advice is given about the use of food to fuel the body during exercise and also to help with weight management and body conditioning.
Lifestyle Mentoring & Performance Coaching
Assisting you to Achieve your Goals
Through a holistic approach to lifestyle, I view each patient as a whole rather than a single symptom to be treated. As a fully qualified Neuro Linguistic Practitioner, lifestyle mentoring can help you to focus on problems and enable you to create solutions to assist with dealing with them. This coaching technique can also assist with sports individuals, by helping you to focus on your goals and have the confidence to achieve them.
