At JM Sports Massage each session is tailored to you and your requirements. After a brief assessment that may take place over the phone, via email or by text, you will be booked for an appointment. At the start of the appointment, you will be asked relevant medical questions, any scan reports you may have will be looked at and a copy may be taken. Medications, previous operations, trauma or injuri
es will be discussed. This is not only so the therapist can guide appropriate treatment but also allows us to understand if manual therapy is suitable for you. You may be asked to demonstrate when and where you have pain and to gently recreate any actions that give you symptoms. Alongside medical history, this will build a picture of why you may be experiencing issues or pain. I have learned over the years how important it is to listen to what is said, after all, you are the one feeling it. I like to think that the session is in much of your control as mine. So, even though I use manual therapies and firm techniques you should never be in agony. I like to describe the feeling of good pain before the start of a session. You can tell you are being worked on however, it feels relieving, helpful and nice. Some of the things that I cover:
• Acute & Post-Acute Conditions
