Ben Ben presented with shoulder pain which, after assessment, was shown to be as a result of a repetitive strain injury (RSI). Deep massage and an exercise rehabilitation programme helped the healing process. An explanation of how the injury occurred and advice on how to change his working practices has enabled Ben to avoid a recurrence of problems. |
Alan A semi-professional footballer, Alan had recurrent calf muscle strains. Assessment isolated the injured muscle and massage started the healing process. A rehabilitation exercise programme strengthened
the muscle and allowed him to return to competitive play.

Sophie After injuring her shoulder whilst skiing, Sophie was left in pain and with a limited range of movement. Assessment revealed a muscle tear not picked up by X-ray. With massage, exercise and ultrasound the shoulder has recovered full function. |
