House visits...
As well as working in the clinic I am available to see you at your own home. Here is an example of of a sports therapy appointment I had today at a house visit to work on shoulder strengthening and stability after an injury skiing. As well as skiing they enjoy running and cycling which is why I have included more sport specific exercises to keep the patient engaged and more motivated to work on their recovery journey. This patient is now in their late phase of exercise rehabilitation and we definitely made the most out of the current sunny weather in their garden!

How I make tailored rehabilitation programmes to you:
Learn about your personal goals
Include sport specific exercises
Make exercises with minimal equipment or everyday house hold items, no gyms needed!!
Understand your work/life balance to include exercises that can be incorporated into your daily schedules

Benefits of acupuncture:

Increase blood flow
Muscle relaxation

Using hot or cold therapy can be an easy but effective way in aiding injury recovery at home. These methods are used alongside a tailored rehabilitation plan for the best outcome.
Before considering hot and cold therapy, it is important to check this is safe for your injury or condition.

If you are having trouble with home management for you injury get in contact or book an appointment to get you started with your recovery !

Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (Shin Splints)

What is it??
As repetitive high loads of weight are put on the lower limbs it causes stress damage to the tibia and the surrounding muscle.

Symptoms:
Achilles tendon restriction
Soreness or pain on the inside of your tibia
Uncomfortable to press the effected area
Pain when walking/running

Home care management is very important when rehabilitating an injury which is why at the end of an appointment I will be giving you the best ways to care for your injury when away from the clinic.

Here is just ONE example of how I get patients to take care of shin splints using Kinesiology tape. Whether your occupation involves lots of heavy lifting or you participate in high loading sports, this is a easy and long lasting method to provide support and reduce pain.
