Services
Physiotherapy Assessment
Our physiotherapists conduct comprehensive assessments to diagnose injuries, including range-of-motion tests, muscle strength evaluations, and biomechanical analysis. This process informs tailored treatment plans combining manual therapy and rehabilitation exercises. Clients benefit from expert diagnosis and targeted interventions to accelerate recovery and restore mobility.
Sports Massage
Specialist sports massage techniques help eliminate muscle toxins, reduce recovery time, and enhance athletic performance. Delivered by a 5-time Paralympic athlete, sessions focus on improving circulation, flexibility, and muscle efficiency. Ideal for athletes and active individuals seeking to maintain peak physical condition and prevent injuries.
Rehabilitation
Personalised rehabilitation programmes are designed to complement manual therapy, using gym-based exercises, hydrotherapy, or home routines. These programmes address specific injuries and functional limitations, promoting long-term recovery. Clients receive ongoing support to rebuild strength, mobility, and confidence in daily or athletic activities.
Remedial Massage
Targeted remedial massage addresses chronic muscle tension, headaches, and postural imbalances caused by modern lifestyles. Techniques re-educate muscles, improve circulation, and alleviate pain. Sessions are tailored to individual needs, combining deep-tissue work with stretching to restore natural alignment and reduce stress.
Hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy utilises water's buoyancy and resistance to aid rehabilitation, particularly post-surgery or for joint conditions. Sessions in the David Lloyd Leisure Club pool improve mobility, strength, and circulation with reduced joint strain. This environment supports gentle, effective recovery for clients of all fitness levels.
