TREATMENT OPTIONS
STANDARD PHYSIO SERVICE
WE UNDERSTAND THAT A RUNNING INJURY REQUIRES A SPECIFIC APPROACH. OUR STANDARD PHYSIOTHERAPY SESSIONS ARE PERFECT FOR ASSESSING AND TREATING ANY RUNNING-RELATED ISSUE YOU MAY HAVE.
IN YOUR APPOINTMENT, WE’LL PERFORM A COMPREHENSIVE SUBJECTIVE AND OBJECTIVE ASSESSMENT TO GET A PRECISE DIAGNOSIS. WE PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE UNIQUE DEMANDS OF RUNNING, ENSURING YOUR TREATMENT PLAN IS TAILORED TO GET YOU BACK ON THE ROAD OR TRAIL SAFELY AND EFFICIENTLY.
ENHANCED RUNNER INJURY SESSION
THIS MORE DETAILED SESSION IS FOR RUNNERS SEEKING A DEEPER DIVE INTO THEIR PERFORMANCE AND INJURY PATTERNS. WE'LL GO BEYOND A STANDARD ASSESSMENT TO COVER KEY ELEMENTS, INCLUDING TRAINING LOAD ANALYSIS, RUNNING GOALS AND RACE PLANNING, AND PREVIOUS INJURY HISTORY. OUR GOAL IS TO CREATE AN ENHANCED PLAN THAT NOT ONLY GETS YOU BACK ON TRACK FROM AN INJURY BUT ALSO IMPROVES YOUR OVERALL PERFORMANCE AND KEEPS YOU RUNNING STRONGER FOR LONGER.
LOAD MANAGEMENT & TRAINING PLAN SESSION
THIS SESSION GETS TO THE CORE OF YOUR RUNNING CHALLENGES. WE WILL ANALYSE YOUR PAST TRAINING AND BUILD A FORWARD-LOOKING PLAN TO HELP YOU GET BACK TO RUNNING, REDUCE INJURY RISK, AND BOOST PERFORMANCE.​ WE’LL CONSIDER YOUR LONG-TERM AND SHORT-TERM GOALS, TIME AVAILABILITY, AND CURRENT PERFORMANCE TO CREATE A PERSONALISED PLAN.
