Sports Therapy

Sports therapy at Nexus HealthHub is focused on helping active people manage musculoskeletal problems, recover from training demands and return confidently to exercise and sport.

It can be useful for both injury management and ongoing recovery, particularly where muscular tightness, soft tissue discomfort, reduced movement or training-related soreness are affecting performance.

We commonly support people with:

  • Sports-related muscular pain
  • Training-related tightness or soreness
  • Overuse problems
  • Reduced mobility
  • Soft tissue injuries
  • Recovery following competition or heavy training
  • Recurrent muscular problems
  • Return to exercise following injury

What to Expect

Your session starts with a discussion around your symptoms, training, recent activity and goals.

Depending on your presentation, treatment may include:

  • Sports massage
  • Soft tissue therapy
  • Myofascial techniques
  • Trigger point work
  • Assisted stretching
  • Mobility work
  • Recovery-focused treatment
  • Basic rehabilitation and exercise guidance

Treatment is adapted according to whether your priority is injury management, recovery, maintaining training quality or preparing to return to activity.

Our Approach

Sports therapy at Nexus HealthHub is integrated with the wider clinical and rehabilitation team.

Rather than viewing soft tissue treatment as a standalone solution, we consider how symptoms relate to movement, strength, training demands and recovery.

Where appropriate, sports therapy can be combined with:

  • Chiropractic care
  • Dry needling
  • Exercise rehabilitation
  • Strength and conditioning
  • Personal training
  • Movement and strength testing
  • MLS® Laser Therapy
  • Hilterapia®
  • Shockwave therapy

If your presentation requires more detailed clinical assessment, imaging or additional investigation, you can also be referred internally to Mark for further assessment.

Our aim is to help you recover effectively while keeping you as active as is appropriate.
