What can I help with ?

Any injury caused by your sport, recreation time or occupational activity.

"Sports therapy aims to return an athlete to full functional fitness in the shortest safest possible time" -
meaning I aim to return you to your chosen activity, pain free, as quickly and safely as possible.

Conditions I treat regularly....

• Golfers/Tennis Elbow
  
• Iliotibial Band Syndrome
  
• Piriformis Syndrome & Gluteal Dysfunction
  
• Shin Splints
  
• Ligament Sprain
  
• Muscle Strain (Pull)
  
• Plantar Fasciitis
  
• Rotator Cuff Dysfunction

Treatments can also be called on for pre/post event and for on-going injury prevention (or 'MOT' work) or to support the body during times of high physical demand for performance preparation, enhancement or recovery.

A Graduate Sports Therapist has completed a BSc (Hons) Degree in Sports Therapy at university,  in order to understand the underlying cause of injury and apply clinical reasoning to patient care.

How can I do this ?

Treatments call on different therapeutic modalities that aim to assess muscle & joint function, remodel scar tissue, increase ROM & flexibility, regain strength & function, retrain balance & stability, and/or reduce muscular tension. 

I may do this through.....

• Clinical Assessment
• Soft Tissue Massage
• ​Fascial Work
• Joint Mobilisations
• Kinesiology Taping
• Rehabilitation Exercise Prescription
• IASTM
• Medical Acupuncture
• ScarWork

"Kirsty helped me recover from a knee injury a year ago, and since then we have kept on top of our treatments in order to prevent anything else getting in the way of my running !  My sessions with her really seem to help."
