deep tissue to pelvic muscles

Solihull Running Injury Clinic in Birmingham recognises the importance of sports massage for runners who are training for the 2011 London Marathon.

 As a result of this the Solihull Sports Injury Clinic has designed a discount package for London Marathon runners enabling them to benefit from a regular sports massage during their marathon training programme.

Regular sports massage from experienced sports massage therapists and sports therapists will enable runners to recover quicker from long training runs.  During massage it is easier to detect potential problems of soreness, muscle fatigue and tendonitis resulting in early diagnosis and intervention of injury.

The running injury clinic in Solihull is based at the Atlas Sports Injury Clinic in Birmingham.  They are very experienced at looking after runners and have a running injury website

Sports Podiatrists for foot and lower leg problems are able to provide biomechanical assessments for runners and if required fit prescription orthotic insoles into your running shoes to prevent overpronation which causes many running injuries.

Sports Physiotherapists at Atlas offer examination, diagnosis and treatment of sports and running injuries.  Electrotherapy such as ultrasound and interferential will speed up your recovery time.

Sports Therapists and Sports Massage Therapists offer sports massage, remedial massage, stretching and deep tissue massage for runners training for long distance races and massage will help promote recovery after long runs and remove unwanted lactic acid deposits in the muscles.

Atlas are offering an additional free treatment if you book 5 sports massage treatments which is advised for all London Marathon runners after Christmas.

Training in January needs to increase the mileage in preparation for the April race and all runners will benefit.

The Birmingham and Tamworth running injury clinics are offering this service and can be contacted on 01827 59943 for booking an appointment at either clinic.
