Do I only do massage - What is it Sports Therapy - Simply stated- a Sports Therapist is a Healthcare Professional- similar to a Physiotherapist- but with a specific interest and focus on the treatment and rehabilitation of sporting conditions and injuries- Throughout my studies- I have the gained the ability- knowledge and skills to assess- optimise- rehabilitate and treat lifestyle- occupational- sports and work injuries- These can be performed in either a Clinical or a pitch side or club sporting setting- I effectively provide assessment and treatment of a variety of musculoskeletal conditions- Alongside these skills- I can deliver injury prevention advice- treatment sessions and even perform sports massage if appropriate- The treatment I offer is very similar to Physiotherapy- however it is tailored more towards working with patients within a sporting environment and population- Just like a Physiotherapist- I often see and treat both amateur athletes and sports people- However- I am equally well equipped to help non-sporting people too- The majority of the patients I see in my private practise- often come to see me for treatment with an occupational or work related injury or problem- I hope this assists in your decision making and recovery- Gerry- Gerry is accredited and insured to practise the following therapies and treatments- -DORN- Method Advanced Therapist- Dry Vacuum Cupping- Emotional Freedom Technique -EFT-- Kinesiology Taping- Korean Auricular Therapy -Ear Acupuncture-- Injury Assessment- Evaluation and Treatment- Oriental Body Balance Therapy- Reflexology- Soft Tissue Massage- Sports Therapy- Thermo -
