Electrotherapy

We offer electrotherapy with the application of a TENS Machine. This comes at no extra cost as part of your booking.

TENS Machines have a wide range of benefits such as

• Pain Relief

• Non-Invasive

• Convenient

• Fast-Action

TENS therapy can benefit patients with varying conditions from various sporting injuries, fibromyalgia, Multiple Sclerosis to patients who simply have muscular aches and pains from exercise.

We also offer Ultrasound Therapy. Ultrasound Therapy works by sending an electric current through crystals found in the ultrasound probe — also known as the ultrasound wand. The probe vibrates, causing waves to travel through the skin to the body underneath. The waves transfer energy to the tissues to cause the desired effects. Ultrasound can also be focused on tissues deep within your body without affecting other tissues close to the surface.

Ultrasound Therapy can be used to alleviate chronic pain and soft tissue injuries due to the heating effect it creates at a cellular level.

Cupping Therapy

Cupping Therapy is available as part of all bookings at SM Sports Therapy. Cupping has many benefits as part of treatment such as eliminating specific localised areas of aches and pains. For athletes who have been diagnosed with a specific injury, cupping can be utilised to accelerate the healing process.

Cupping therapy is also beneficial for athletes in decreasing recovery time after strenuous training. For regular gym-goers or athletes who wish to book in, cupping can be beneficial in making sure you are good to go for your next training session!
