At the Ashridge Clinic LD Sports Therapy offers the following
treatments:
Sports
Massage
Sports
massage can be used to
help those with stress or injuries but is also used by many to relax and
unwind. Its deep techniques are different to those of therapeutic
massage and
it has many benefits:
- Improve circulation
&
lymphatic flow
- Assist in the removal of metabolic waste
- Sedate
or stimulate nerve endings
- Increase or decrease muscle tone
- Increase
or decrease muscle length
- Remodel scar tissue when required
- Assist
in mental preparation for sporting participation
In your
first appointment a
medical history will be taken to ensure you are suitable to receive a
sports
massage. There may also be an assessment of your joint and muscle
function
before the massage begins.

Injury Rehabilitation and Hydrotherapy
Injury
rehabilitation is
appropriate for those with new injuries or chronic injuries. This
differs from
sports massage as it may utilise other techniques such as strengthening
exercises, stretching and flexibility, proprioceptive exercises and
joint
mobilisations. Hydrotherapy is particularly effective for those in the early stages of rehabilitation, especially after hip and knee replacements or back injuries.
A 60 minute session is required
initially to
fully assess the
injury and to diagnose the problem. Following this, treatment and
rehabilitation can begin. Home exercises will usually be prescribed to
enhance
your healing time and reduce the amount of sessions you need with Laura.
The Ashridge Clinic is the ideal location for injury rehabilitation as the facilities include a cardiovascular centre, two weights rooms and a 16m indoor heated swimming pool as seen below.
