In the competitive world of sports, physical health is essential for performance. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just enjoy playing on weekends, maximising your performance often comes with challenges, such as injuries and mobility issues. Thankfully, NTT offers a game-changing service—Injury Prevention Screening with our skilled physio, Kasia. This screening empowers you with the knowledge and tools to identify and overcome your body's limitations, helping you perform at your best.
What Is Injury Prevention Screening?
Injury Prevention Screening is a thorough assessment designed to identify physical limitations that could increase your injury risk. This screening looks at your entire body, considering unresolved injuries, mobility, flexibility, movement patterns, and functional imbalances.
In a 60-minute initial appointment, Kasia will perform a detailed examination of all your key joints. The session includes various functional tests to discover any potential concerns—like weak ankle dorsiflexion or tight hip flexors—that might lead to injuries later on.
Early detection is critical. By understanding these issues before they develop into serious injuries, you can take proactive steps to maintain your athletic health.
Understanding Your Body's Limitations
One major advantage of Injury Prevention Screening is the insight it provides into your body's unique mechanics. Many people might not realise how specific movement patterns can cause discomfort or lead to injuries, particularly in high-impact sports like rugby or football.
Kasia utilises her expertise to identify these issues. By gaining clarity about your body's specific mechanics, you can make better choices about your training and activities, helping you pursue your athletic goals confidently.
The Assessment Process
During your visit for Injury Prevention Screening with Kasia, here’s what you can expect:
Comprehensive Joint Examination: The process begins with a detailed assessment of all relevant joints. Kasia will conduct tests to evaluate mobility and strength, identifying any restrictions.
Functional Tests: These tests gauge how different parts of your body work together. For example, a squat test can reveal issues with hip mobility or core stability, helping pinpoint areas that may lead to injuries.
Personalised Report: After the assessment, you will receive a tailored report summarising all findings. This personalised approach ensures you get insights specifically geared towards your body's strengths and weaknesses.
Customised Exercise Plan: Along with your report, you will receive a personalised exercise plan. These exercises aim to enhance your mobility, strength, and flexibility while minimising injury risk. For instance, if you have limited shoulder mobility, your plan may include specific stretches to improve your range of motion.
The comprehensive nature of this assessment gives you the tools you need to unlock your full athletic potential.
