Hot and Cold Sports Injury Treatments
Why is Heat Useful in Sports Injuries
Heat therapy can be useful for sports injuries because it helps to increase blood flow to the affected area, which can promote healing and reduce pain. Heat can also help to relax muscles and decrease stiffness, making it easier to move and stretch the affected area.
At Sanderstead Osteopaths, we use heat therapy in conjunction with other treatments such as manual therapy, sports massage and exercise prescription to help you recover from your sports injury. Our experienced osteopaths will work with you to determine the best treatment plan for your unique needs.
How Can Sports Massage Help with Sports Injuries?
Sports massage is a specialised form of massage therapy that can be beneficial for athletes dealing with sports injuries. This technique is different from other types of massage therapy in that it is more vigorous and focuses on specific areas of the body that are affected by physical activity.
Sports massage can help to reduce pain and inflammation associated with sports injuries. The technique also aids in increasing blood flow to the affected area, which promotes healing and reduces recovery time. Our sports massage therapists use a range of techniques to address sports injuries, including deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release. These techniques are designed to address specific areas of tension and pain, helping to alleviate symptoms and promote healing.
In addition to treating current sports injuries, sports massage can also help to prevent future injuries. By reducing tension and improving flexibility, sports massage can help prevent muscle imbalances and other issues that can contribute to injury risk. During a sports massage session for a sports injury, our therapist will typically focus on the affected area, using a range of techniques to help reduce pain and inflammation and promote healing.

Can Sports Massage Help Prevent Future Injuries?
In addition to treating current sports injuries, sports massage can also help to prevent future injuries. By reducing tension and improving flexibility, sports massage can help to prevent muscle imbalances and other issues that can contribute to injury risk.
How Long Does it Take to Recover from a Sport Injury?

At Sanderstead Osteopaths, our skilled sports massage therapists collaborate closely with our clients to design personalised and efficient treatment plans that cater to their specific needs and objectives, guaranteeing a speedy return to peak physical fitness.
