Physical Therapy

A Physical Therapy Session Explained

Neuromuscular Physical Therapy (Neuromuscular therapy) is a modern scientific based approach that focuses on the neural and musculoskeletal system of the body. The therapy focuses on the treatment of soft tissue pain, injury and changes in sensation.

I combine my knowledge of neuromuscular therapy with the sports pro acedemy approach to create a unique method of assessing and treating pain, injury and movement inadequacies.

A neuromuscular therapy session begins with a subjective assessment of the clients current issues, the story of injury, the stresses the injury now causes and any previous injuries are first explained as they may be precursors for the current issue.

This is followed by an assessment of movement, submaximal muscle tests and specific pathology testing if neccessary. Pathology testing is used in incidences of acute pain to check for tendon or ligamnet damage most typically following sports injuries. Submaximal muscle testing essentially assesses which muscles of the body are working optimally and which muscles are not.

I use a combination of on table work and exercises to restore the muscles to optimal working capacity, before reassessing the impact of the treatment in line with the goals of the client. I then assign a set of exercises to further progress the impact made from the treatment.

A treatment session typically lasts 45-60 minutes and costs 60 euro.
