INJURY REHABILITATION

What is injury rehabilitation?

Injury rehabilitation is the key element to becoming pain free and staying there. It is the use of evidence based exercise prescription, focusing on your key weaknesses, mechanism of injury and causative factors. These are identified during your initial consultation that all new patients/ injuries require. Your rehabilitation programme will be regularly adapted depending on how you and your therapist feel about progress made.

What to expect in an injury rehabilitation session:

All new injuries/ patients will require an initial consultation to identify your strengths and weaknesses, cause of injury and pain levels. From this, we will then be able to tailor a rehabilitation programme to your every need and work closely with you towards the goal of becoming pain free and stronger. During your one-to-one session, your therapist will assess your biomechanics, pain, and mobility. You will then receive a personalised rehabilitation programme, emailed to you after your session, so that progress can be made across your lifestyle (at home, on the move, in the gym etc).

Benefits of injury rehabilitation:

Improving strength

Increasing mobility

Reducing pain

Preventing injury

Improving posture

Biomechanical improvements

What To Expect From Each Visit

01

When you arrive at any one of our clinics you will be welcomed by one of our friendly Therapists.

You will be made to feel as comfortable as possible and will be asked a series of questions so the Therapist can gain an understanding of the reason for your visit. There will be a brief assessment to establish any areas of pain and discomfort.

02

The Therapist will then advise on which items of clothing you need to remove, leave the room whilst you get changed and will give you towels with which to drape yourself.

Your Therapist will return to begin the treatment and will continually update you on what they are doing and why. All Therapists are used to working and adapting the depth of pressure to each client’s individual tolerance level, so you shouldn’t experience too much discomfort.

03

During the treatment the Therapist will be starting to formulate a plan of how we can continue to help you moving forward.

At the end of each session you will be given an update on how your body seems to have reacted to the treatment and you will be given advice on how you can manage any discomfort once you leave the clinic. You may feel slightly sore, tender and a little lethargic post-treatment, all of which can be totally normal.

04

Despite this, we can guarantee that you will feel better within 1-2 days and will be already considering returning for further treatment.

In order for the client to build a professional relationship with each Therapist and to get continuity with each treatment, we recommend you try and see the same Therapist next time. However, if this is not possible then each Therapist has access to all client information so they will be fully informed on your history prior to meeting you.

What our patients think...

I booked in to see Ben as an old ongoing back injury had flared up again, preventing me from doing the exercise I enjoy. Ben was really friendly, approachable and totally professional and after a comprehensive examination I made weekly visits initially moving to more spaced out visits for treatment until things settled down. I am happy to say I am now pain free. Ben's treatment program was very thorough including exercises to do at home and also in the gym as my condition improved. I'm now back to doing the high intensity exercise I was before and I can't thank Ben enough for his treatment. Would 100% recommend Ben at Chorley SB Sports Massage.

Lloyd Willcox

I came to Danny at SB with stiffness and pain in my lower back. He explained in detail what he believed the issue to be and what was needed to get me moving pain free again. He advised of some great core and lower back exercises which I’ve incorporated into my gym workouts, and the pain has slowly eased which I’m delighted about. I highly recommend Danny - great knowledge and excellent facilities.

Jord Barlow
I would highly recommend SB Sports massage. I play a lot of sport and have an active job but recently have recently been getting a lot of lower back pain. Ben has fixed all my problems and am now pain and injury free. Really knowledgeable and friendly.
