If you are looking for a Sports Therapy Southampton session to help you be at your absolute best in your chosen Sport, then we have some excellent Sports Therapists for you to meet!
Our Sports Therapists have a great deal of hands on and pitch side experience, as well as Sports Massage and other extensive qualifications.
Sports Therapy will access and recognise any restrictions you are having, work with you to recover and develop practices to reduce further harm.
Sports Therapists are not Physiotherapists, but they do possess similar skills, applying similar methods for the treatment or prevention of injury or muskolo-skeletal disorders. The YOU Massage Southampton Sports Therapists are also Sports Massage Therapists.
Individual sessions and Group Sports Therapy classes are available.

Sports Therapy can aid recovery from and prevention of injury
If you play Sports regularly, or spend extensive periods being still, you will know your body needs extra care and attention to function at it's best.
Your Sports Therapist will apply assessment and techniques to develop a good sense of function in your muscles, connective tissues and joints.
By working on muscle imbalances that caused, or will cause, injury, you will prevent damage and increase strength and stamina with Sports Therapy.
By increasing mobility, circulation and tissue mobility, you will benefit from improved performance, reduced scar tissue, pain and frequency of injury
Sports Therapists will also work with you to deliver expert advice and develop strong and healthy habits
