Sports Injury

Injuries are a common occurrence in sport, and whilst most teams have their own training staff and medical connections, the question arises that decisions are being made for short term gain rather than long term health.

At Premier Clinic we will undertake an objective, professional evaluation of your injury and provide the best treatment and advice in the interests of your long term health, ensuring that you are able to continue to partake confidently in your chosen sport.

Avoid taking risks with your long term health; speak to our specialist team about the best treatment for your sports injury.

What is massage therapy and sports massage?

At Premier Clinic, we believe massage therapy and sports massage are one and the same. Sports Massage, despite the name, can deliver fantastic results in recovery and pain relief for everyone, from top athletes to the weekend warrior/individual person.

Therapeutic sports massage works on the body’s deeper soft tissue structures, softening, lengthening and stretching to ease and increase the range of movement. It encourages relaxation, increasing production of endorphins, mood elevators and the body’s natural painkillers. Cupping can also be used In conjunction with massage.

How sports massage can help you

If you have been suffering from long-term pain, or have developed acute muscular-skeletal pain due to posture problems or injury, sports massage can support your body’s recovery and help to develop strength and relieve pain.

It also enables the body to relax and de-stress, creating a sense of well-being. It’s the ultimate feel-good factor whether helping relax after a stressful week at work, winding down after a heavy gym session or getting rid of DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) after the marathon or the match.

Sport/Remedial Massage

We provide sports massage extensively as a stand-alone service or in conjunction with other treatment programmes where its benefits can significantly aid recovery.
Take the stress out of your body – and your life! Book your sports massage and see for yourself the difference it can make.

Where necessary we can tailor to each individual’s requirements, this can be discussed at your initial appointment following your assessment.
