Initial Assessment

5 layer full body Assessment to find contributing factors for chronic pain or how acute injury has affected your body. Injury History. Movement, Range of Motion, Muscular Function. Posture and Gait are all part of the Initial Assessment.
Quick Assessment just focused on the site of pain and other contributing factors are not considered

Clarity, Plan of Action & 24/7 Support

We’ll give you clarity on how long it will take to get you back doing the things you love, what’s contributing to your pain and a bespoke plan for what we can do about it. We are always available to support or questions also.
No plan to get you back to your goals and no timeframe or expectations set. Hard to reach or contact when needed.

Hands on Treatment

We use the latest hands-on treatments to ease muscular tension and to restore range of motion and muscular function. We don’t just focus on the painful area.
Generic massage techniques or rehab exercises focused on the painful area only. Not consideration given to underlying causes.

Top class rehab specific to what you need

We have dedicated ourselves to searching out and learning from the best around. You will be getting world-class rehab techniques, proven at the highest levels. We help professional sportspeople, high level amateur’s, hobbyists and general population achieve their goals.
Generic exercises with no clear outcome. Hit and hope approach where long term resilience or capacity or not considered

Confidence

We will build you back stronger and better than you were pre-injury/pain and our graded approach will give you the confidence you need in your ability to achieve your goals.
When you have no clear approach, you cannot build confidence from this approach. Worst case scenarios need to be included in your rehab, not just low level generic exercises.
