THE REHABILITATION PROCESS
- STEP 1 - DIAGNOSIS -
The first step to your journey to recovery is to receive a diagnosis of your injury. Once we know what has been injured, and how it has become injured, we can start to formulate a recovery plan.
Your injury will be specific to you therefore, it is important to understand your diagnosis and what the short-term and long-term implications are.
- STEP 2 - TREATMENT PLANNING -
Many injuries are often left neglected which leads to further issues down the line. A thorough rehabilitation plan will help to maximize recovery efficiency and reduce long-term complications.
Together, we will formulate a plan that puts your goals at the forefront. As you progress, your plan requirements will be amended to continue to support your recovery.
- STEP 3 - PLAN OF ACTION -
Actioning a rehab plan is paramount to achieving the best outcomes and success. This may require you to conduct exercises and stretches at home or the gym.
Adherence to your plan will ensure you are on the road to a swift and successful recovery. This will enable you to return to your daily activities including the gym and sports.
- CASE STUDY 1 -
Avkash - ACL Reconstruction -
Avkash was initially a personal training client of mine. However, due to a dirty football tackle, he managed to rupture his ACL ligament. After an X-Ray, it was determined the best option would be reconstruction surgery which involves taking some of the hamstring tendons to help build a new ACL ligament.
Post-surgery we worked on improving his mobility and reducing stiffness. After extensive physio sessions at home, we progressed to strengthening his weakened leg muscles to help him return fully to the gym before progressing to playing football and boxing again.
- CASE STUDY 2 -
Seema - Humerus Fracture -
Seema was unfortunate to experience a fall which left her fracturing her left humerus. Seema decided to reach out to me to help her regain the full range of motion in her arm and build up her upper body strength again so that she can also focus on losing her post-pregnancy weight.
Initially, we worked on basic activities that mimicked daily activities such as picking, carrying, and lifting objects. We did this using dumbbells, kettlebells, and slam balls.
As her humerus began recovering, we began to progress her towards a gym workout plan that focused on building upper body strength and fat loss.
- CASE STUDY 3 -
Bhavin - Lower Back Pain -
Prior to meeting me, Bhavin had spent many years working an office job with a daily commute. This caused him to develop tightness in his lower back and hip area which also resulted in sciatic nerve pain.
Working with Bhavin, we managed to improve his general fitness and strength whilst losing body fat. Some sports massages were also given to help reduce tightness in key muscle groups; lower back, glutes, and hamstrings.
