Sports Injuries
Sports Injuries
Osteopathy treats the structure of our body to make it function more efficiently. This means that osteopaths are well-suited both to treating many common sports injuries and to improving sports performance. Osteopaths will diagnose injured tissues and also identify the biomechanical causes of these injuries. We will try to identify any other factors that might predispose us to injury or slow its recovery. These could be as diverse as technique, footwear, nutrition, training schedule or inadequate rest and recovery. We can also create a rehabilitation programme, appropriate to you and your sport. I have had a particular interest in sports injuries throughout my career and have treated sports people of all types from world record holders to those who just like a knock around in the park. My aim is always to get you back to doing the sport that you love as quickly as possible. Having lifted weights most of my adult life, I understand well the mechanism of injury for many gym users. My undergraduate dissertation was on the risk factors for weight training injuries and so I am equipped to give you advice on how to stay safe in the gym and optimise your strength and conditioning program.
Emyr Lloyd-Jones is very thorough and has a firm touch which gets to the root of the problem. He takes the time to ask for the symptoms and suggests ways to improve the issue. He is also very personable and makes the session as pleasant as possible.
I had not previously used an osteopath. Emyr was great at explaining what would happen and was very reassuring.
Brilliant knowledgable good calm manner explains everything well in a language you understand
Emyr has helped with a course of treatment on two separate occasions, once for my back and once for a shoulder issue. Excellent treatment, advice, explanations and a very reassuring bedside manner, Emyr is clearly highly experienced and knowledgeable and I would very much recommend him.
Fantastic trigger point acupuncture that keeps my headaches away. Much more effective that traditional acupuncture this was just what I needed and released so much tension in my back and neck. Emyr is a lovely Welshman puts you at ease from the off. 5 stars he has a huge reputation amongst my friends who also see him.
Emyr has always been able to pinpoint the problems I have had with my back and been able to manipulate it to allow the pain to go away and for me to be aligned again. He is a miracle worker!
