We customise treatment that will get you back in the sport as quickly as possible.
Structural Bodywork
Structural bodywork is a process-based approach typically involving soft tissue manipulation and movement therapy techniques that help to release tension holding patterns in muscles, improve joint movement, and achieve balance within your body and gravity. Through therapeutic soft tissue work and awareness movement training, you can release painful, stressful patterns of tension and chronic pain. Structural bodywork can enhance the sport performance by balancing the structure (joint, muscles) of the body and help to resolve any old injuries.

Movement Restoration
After resolving the pain and injury, our physiotherapist will help you to regain full function with sport specific exercises and address underlying biomechanics issues, improve agility, power and injury prevention.
