At our clinic, we adopt a comprehensive approach to physiotherapy and exercise physiology, with a focus on both injury prevention and performance enhancement tailored specifically to the demands of gymnastics. Our interventions encompass a range of strategies aimed at optimising biomechanics, improving muscular strength and flexibility, and enhancing proprioception and balance.
