3. There is nothing we like to see more than
people at the top of their game in a given
sporting event improve even further after we
have helped attain even higher goals. All of us
at Physio in Leeds are actively participating in
sport, some at amateur level, and others at
semi-professional standards.

4. Firstly, let's lose the myth that sports
physiotherapy is only for those who are
injured or have sustained a niggling problem
with their fitness. Sports physiotherapy exists
for those who are in tip top condition and
needing physiotherapy to prevent injury. A
sportsman who indulges in a game without
having the required levels of fitness is clearly
prone to injury.

5. It is a cold hard fact that if you are fit and
have received the right sports physiotherapy
while you are not injured, you are less likely
to become injured whilst indulging in your
sport. Our physio in Leeds will look at small
things that most sports participants overlook;
trigger point therapy and what we call PNF
stretching (proprioceptive neuromuscular
facilitation stretching).

6. Physio in Leeds will also perform sports
massage; tennis players with upper arm
cramp, footballers with Achilles tendons
tightness and rugby player back with neck
injuries and stiffness, all of which require
loosening of the muscle and tissue clustering
so that it can be released back into the
bloodstream where it can be expelled by
sweating or urination.

7. Loosening muscles in this fashion allows the
individual to remain at the top of their game
and run less risk of injury. Other methods we
use in improving sports physiotherapy are
manipulation and mobilization techniques,
soft tissue (these can be prone to injury) to
cure niggling injuries that may not sideline
you but cause you to take pain killing
injections before a vital competitive game.

8. At Physio in Leeds we work with sportsmen
and women and help to achieve a level of
fitness they probably thought was
unobtainable. Our sports physiotherapists can
improve mobility, improve performance by
physiotherapy treatments and prevent the
obvious injuries from recurring. Our physio in
Leeds can toughen up those weak points
which make sports stars so vulnerable to
injury.

9. Remember, prevention is better than cure,
and this is very true in physiotherapy for
those sportsmen and women who only attend
the treatment room when they are injured. So,
take a look and check us out today at sports-
performance section of our page to see how
we can help improve your performance levels
in sport.
