Physiotherapy can help kickstart your recovery and get you relief from pain, but it's the addition of quality rehabilitation that will get you back to feeling 100% again, and even reduce your risk of future injury.
Recovery physiotherapy starts as soon as initial treatment for your injury is complete and this speeds up your recovery. Research shows sports recovery physiotherapy therapy can shorten the time you need to stay off work and greatly improve your quality of your life after an injury.
The knowledge by our sports recovery experts, and the facilities we have is what sets us apart from other local physiotherapists.
There’s rarely a one-size fits-all solution that you can downloaded from the internet, which is why using sports injury rehab experts is such an important part of your recovery.
Understanding the constraints of where you are and what you need to be able to do to reach your ultimate goals is vital for sports recovery therapy. You will transition from general exercises to sport-specific exercises designed to replicate movements common in given sports.
It is essential that the rehabilitation and training is sufficiently vigorous to prepare your injured tissue for the demands of your specific sport. One of the things that makes our rehabilitation better than other local sports physiotherapists is that you benefit from our fully equipped gym.
It is common for flexibility to be reduced post-injury or post-surgery as a result of pain, swelling, muscle guarding, or spasm; and shortening of connective tissue and muscle; or some combination of these factors.
Therapeutic exercises are often prescribed for helping people improve their range of movement (ROM) which can help eliminate pain or reduce dysfunctional movement (which can cause pain) and/or to restore normal functional movement to the area.
Restoring normal ROM is one of the primary goals of rehabilitation. Whether it's a joint, muscle, or bone injury, a quality rehabilitation can help you regain strength, flexibility, and range of motion to the affected area, either in our recovery physio sessions, at home or on the gym floor.
Quality recovery physiotherapy can help reduce pain and discomfort. By using a combination of targeted exercises and other techniques, our specialised rehabilitation therapists can give you advice on the right type of exercise and activity to help you feel and move better so you can get back to your normal activities with ease.
For patients that are involved in sports, rehabilitation represents the start of the conditioning process needed to return to sports training and competition. Understanding the demands of the particular sport becomes essential as well as communication with the coach. This phase also represents an opportunity to identify and correct risk factors, thus reducing the possibility of re-injury.
Each person responds differently to the treatment phase of an injury and therefore this also applies to the rehabilitation phase. Unique differences in the sustained injury and your body type can change your experience and response to different rehabilitation approaches.
By incorporating gym-based exercises, our sports injury and rehab specialists can provide you with a wide range of equipment and resources necessary to address your specific needs. Your individual exercise plan ensures that you receive targeted rehabilitation, focusing on strengthening the affected area, improving mobility, and restoring function at a speed that suits you, and your specific goals best.
The physiotherapists at our rehabilitation clinic in Cheltenham have the expertise to help you recover from your sports injury, and be even stronger than before.
We understand that some people may want to find out a bit more about the cost before they book an appointment at our physiotherapy clinic. Our unique save as you recover packages can save you up to 20% on the cost of a single session.
For most injuries our chartered physio can usually treat you within 4 to 8 sessions.
We can either work directly with your insurance company or we can provide receipts for patients who use cash-based plans so you can reclaim your treatment costs.
You can book an appointment on a self referral basis, without the need for seeing your GP first.
No other local physiotherapy clinic can offer you the same level of physiotherapy and rehabilitation that we can, simply because they don't have our level of experience and our in-house gym facilities.
This is how we gained our reputation of treating patients when other physios may have failed.
