Sports physiotherapy sessions in Leyland
Injury Mechanics offer sports physiotherapy sessions in the Leyland area to help you work towards your targets. Physio sessions often begin with a physical assessment which allows us to outline the roots of any injuries or problems, as well as understand particular movement patterns which we might need to work on with you.
Tight muscles or joints which aren’t moving as we'd expect are potential areas we’d focus on.
Local sports physiotherapy
Our local sports physiotherapy services can be refined into more specialised areas, which cover everything you might need:
Sports therapy and injury rehabilitation - We begin with a thorough assessment and move onto a gait analysis to find the sources of pain or discomfort, and build a plan to help you manage these issues both in and out of sessions, reaching long term goals.
Sports massage therapy - Sometimes a very different service to sports physiotherapy, but often considered as a branch of it. With this service we’d aim to counter joint and muscle fatigue, usually focusing on a specific area of the body in order to see real change.
Biomechanical analysis - Focused on your pelvis, feet, ankles, and knees, we conduct a thorough physical examination to find out how weight is transferred through your body when you move. Ideally, we’ll find out how this contributes to pain or discomfort you’re experiencing, and we teach you better habits to improve athletic performance.
Pilates - Despite not technically falling under the remit of physiotherapy, pilates can be included as part of a holistic physiotherapy plan which can aid in increasing performance and flexibility. We may use pilates as just one of many techniques used to work towards your goals.
Acupuncture - We’ll target specific ‘pressure points’ so that acupuncture can be used for pain relief by releasing hormones which are beneficial for the body and even improve mood!
Injection therapy - A technique which uses Corticosteroids or Ostenil to ease inflammation and relieve pain. This can be useful when used in harmony with other methods and services.
Who can perform sports physiotherapy?
Effective sports physiotherapy must be performed by a registered therapist who has experience working with athletes. You need a specialist in physio who understands how to deal with a range of muscular and joint-based problems.
When considering who to choose for sports physiotherapy, you should go for a local injury rehabilitation provider who ensures a high quality and professional service every time, regardless of the problem you are experiencing. Without judgement, our down to earth approach focuses just as much on equipping you to deal with pain and self-improvement outside of our sessions, as well as professionally dealing with them within sessions.
