Sports Massage and Injury Treatment
Sports Massage and Injury Treatment
With 10 years international athletics experience Paul has been to many medical practitioners, with the aim of avoiding/fixing injury problems. Overall he found this very expensive and results were often poor. Often the physiotherapist treated the area of pain instead of the problem area which was causing the pain. They also used ultra sound treatment instead of much more appropriate hands on treatment, which should be used to loosen up the muscles that insert or attach to the joints. (some give me an ultra sound machine and left the room and treated other clients at the same time, don’t go back to these guys!) Paul looked into various schools of treatment, and decided to do a course run by Dave and Tina Corcoran, who are know for their excellent results in the international athletics circle. The Remedial Therapy course in Dublin, is a course designed specifically to deal with injuries and tightness, in a fast, efficient and cost effective way.
The course covers:
- Anatomy & Physiology, Advanced Massage
- Sports Massage, Soft Tissue Release
- Muscle Energy Technique, Trigger Points
- Positional Release, Differential Diagnosis
- Event Massage
- Local Muscular Endurance & Resistance
- Training
- Rehabilitation of Injuries
Paul is now giving athletes and people with pain the treatment he wished for as an Olympic athlete. For an introductory price of £25 per session, (£20 for regular treatments) clients are getting the best treatment for a fraction of the cost elsewhere!
