STT - Soft Tissue Therapy Midlothian, UK

I'm a local therapist offering clinical Sports Massage and Soft Tissue Therapy in Musselburgh for the treatment of chronic pain and soft tissue injuries.  Sports massage is the application of massage techniques to athletes, used to help them prepare for and recover from training and competing. It can be used to address injury problems, improve functional flexibility and range of motion and reduce recovery times between training. However it is not just for athletes. The techniques used in sports massage treat the soft tissues of the body (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia), which everyone has, and so there is a move towards referring to it as soft tissue therapy instead. Soft tissue therapy is the assessment, treatment and management of soft tissue injury, pain and dysfunction of the musculoskeletal system. It looks to address the whole body system, identifying and treating causes of pain and dysfunction and not just treating the symptoms. It can redress imbalances caused by everyday activities, such as sitting at a computer all day, allowing a greater freedom of movement and a consequent reduction in chronic pain. It can also be used to ease some of the symptoms of medical conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, Diabetes and Cystic Fibrosis. Treatments include a postural and/or joint assessments to identify the source of your issues, a full treatment using a range of massage and soft tissue techniques, and advice on stretching and rehabilitation exercises.

Professional physiotherapy solutions to a range of conditions are provided by the team of chartered physiotherapists at this clinic in Edinburgh. A detailed diagnosis is conducted and a treatment plan to make patients live a pain free life is drawn up. Services provided include joint manipulation and mobilization and soft tissue massage, exercise prescriptions for strengthening muscles and stretching soft tissues, core stability exercises, electrotherapy using ultrasound, low voltage TENS, interferential electrotherapy, traction, and massage therapy.
