Physiotherapy is the treatment and prevention of injury and disease by natural means. The aim of physiotherapy is to help alleviate pain, restore normal movement and function and help return the body to its natural balanced state without chemical intervention. Physiotherapy, as well as relieving symptoms, teaches long term self management of musculo-skeletal problems.

Physiotherapists employ a wide range of skills:

• Assessment
• Manipulation
• Postural Re-education
• Acupuncture
• Mobilisation
• Muscle balancing techniques
• Electrotherapy treatments
• Rehabilitation
• Relaxation
• Ergonomic assessment

The research evidence shows that physiotherapy is providing the answers; the combination of diagnostic, treatment and rehabilitation skills enables us to offer patients multi-dimensional approaches to treating conditions and preventing re-injury.

A big part of my life is spent taking part in sports, especially mountain biking & running, and now, another big part of my life is massage. The effects of massage on the body are incredible and can help with a number of issues including:

• pain relief
• increase range of movement
• help recover from injury
• reduce stress
• correct postural problems
• help prevent injuries

Sports massage should be part of any training plan, no matter what sport you play. Over time, muscle imbalances start to appear which can start causing you aches and pains which can effect your performance. Massage on a weekly, fortnightly or monthly basis can help to address any of these imbalances and prevent injuries from occurring. If you have had an injury in the past, sports massage can also be a great way to get you training and racing again as soon as possible.

Sports massage is not only for sports people; office workers and people who drive a lot are also prone to a lot of chronic injuries which build up over a period of time. Massage can help with this and also advice will be given on ways to avoid these.

Personally tailored homecare advice will be part of your treatment. Relatively small adjustments in your lifestyle and training habits can often be enough to bring about a significant improvement in your health and overall body maintenance before, during and after sporting activity.

Nutritional Therapy is a big name for a really simple concept.  It boils down to this: what you eat, and how you eat it.  This can have a huge impact on you, your body, your mind, and how you what you do! In terms of sport and exercise, what you eat is a vital part of the process of getting fit.  It doesn't matter where you are starting from, or what your goals are - if you want to lose weight, increase your stamina or just get faster - putting in the right fuel for you and your body will reward you with great performance.

But don't fret, this doesn't mean a lifetime of restricted foods, and eating sawdust for breakfast!  I love making good nutrition easy, fun and realistic so that you can feel great!
