Goal of treatment

What's involved in sports physio?

A  combination of soft and deep-tissue massage techniques incorporated with joint mobilization treatments, stretches and exercises to ensure the long-term sustainability of your results and to act as a preventative measure against future sports injuries.

Charlie will be restoring movement and function in the problem area(s),  taking the necessary steps to alleviate pain with an emphasis on reducing the likelihood of injury reoccurrence.    

Injury rehabilitation through sports therapy involves developing a personalized rehabilitation program to treat the injury in the most effective way possible, taking into account your current circumstances. Typically, Charlie will focus first on relieving pain and inflammation to make day-to-day living more tolerable through hands-on manual therapy.      

The pain relief will then allow us to focus on restoring mobility, strength, and flexibility through targeted exercises and stretches. Charlie will reintroduce sport-specific activities to rebuild strength and functionality in the injury region. As Charlie progresses through your sports-physio treatment plan, your sessions and exercises will evolve as the injury continues to heal.

Things to expect

A  portion of your first session will be dedicated to Charlie assessing you to develop a comprehensive understanding of your injury and current circumstances before proceeding to hands-on treatment. This will include a physical assessment of muscle tissue integrity and sensitivity, mobility, and joint stability to identify pain sources and functional impairments.

Rehabilitation from sports injuries is a vital process that focuses on restoring musculoskeletal strength, flexibility, and function with an  emphasis on future injury prevention. A typical recovery journey starts with managing the immediate pain of the patient, integrating gentle exercises to begin to restore the mobility of the target region.

Strength training is critical in this process to rebuild muscle and reinforce the stability in the treatment region. Charlie tailors his rehabilitation programs for the specific individual and works with them to ensure they understand every step of the process. Charlie will be closely monitoring your progress and will adjust the hands-on treatment as well as the exercise program according to where the patient is in their recovery journey. Charlie will be available to answer any questions in his Norwich clinic or will be happy to answer any queries over the phone and email.

Through the use of 3D anatomy modeling, along with supporting informational resources, Charlie will provide you with an in-depth explanation of the health issues you are currently experiencing and what is causing them.

Sports Injury Clinic in Norwich

At the S&C Therapy clinic, we appreciate how essential it is for people to keep active and free from injury regardless of whether you are into sports or not. Injuries are restricting, injuries are painful, injuries will have a profound effect on your well-being if left untreated.  Charlie is a physio who has worked as an MSK Specialist for the NHS and treated a host of different sports-related injuries.      

Seeking assistance in your recovery from a sports injury clinic is imperative as even minor injuries can develop over time possibly leading to chronic pain and permanent damage. Furthermore, there's the danger of developing compensatory movements in the body to avoid immediate pain from the injury area. This can lead to all sorts of imbalances and complications the longer it is left. What's more, exercising and sports participation without addressing your condition will have both a detrimental effect on your performance and could significantly prolong the recovery process. For this reason, it is essential you get a diagnosis from a medication professional who can best manage your return to physical activity, minimising the potential for injury setbacks.

Whether you're suffering from strains or more complex conditions such as tendinitis, we will be happy to aid your rehabilitation process at the clinic. We are true experts in musculoskeletal recovery so if you are a local Norwich resident come and see why we have the reputation we do. We are based in Norwich City Centre at the Yoga Tree, All Saints Green (located off Surrey Street and Queens Road).

What’s the difference between sports physio vs sports massage therapy?
Sports physio treatment applies to the recovery techniques used for a range of musculoskeletal injuries that impair mobility and cause feelings of pain and discomfort. Sports massage therapy conversely is focused solely on muscular manipulation to relieve tension and soreness.
3 steps to recovery
Understanding

Through interactive 3D anatomy modelling and thorough one-on-one consulting in your first session at the clinic, we will gain a comprehensive understanding of your condition. From here I will draw up the optimal treatment program tailored for you.

Execution

Together we will follow this roadmap to give you the most impactful results. This will typically take the characteristics of more frequent sessions in the shorter term, then as we move along your recovery timeline, typically we'll progressively decrease the intensity.

Longevity

I like to make sure my patients understand what is happening in their bodies so they can best alter any destructive habits. You will be looked after with my aftercare plans that are drawn up with a level of detail and care you will not find anywhere else.
