How Can It Help Me?
Injury rehabilitation and biomechanical analysis play crucial roles in helping athletes improve their performance. Here’s an explanation of how these components contribute to performance enhancement:
Injury Rehabilitation:
Recovery and Return to Play
When athletes sustain injuries, proper rehabilitation is essential to facilitate recovery and safely return them to their sport. Rehab programs focus on restoring strength, mobility, and function, while addressing any underlying issues that contributed to the injury. By rehabilitating injuries effectively, athletes can regain physical fitness, prevent re-injury, and resume training to improve their performance.
Addressing Weaknesses and Imbalances
Injury rehabilitation provides an opportunity to address weaknesses, imbalances, and movement dysfunctions that may have contributed to the injury. Rehab exercises and interventions can target specific muscle groups or movement patterns to improve strength, stability, and motor control. Addressing these issues helps athletes perform more efficiently, reducing the risk of future injuries and enhancing overall performance.
Psychological Rehabilitation
Injuries not only affect the physical aspects of an athlete but also their mental and emotional well-being. Effective injury rehabilitation includes psychological support to help athletes cope with the challenges of recovery, maintain motivation, and regain confidence. Mental resilience is crucial for athletes to perform at their best, and rehabilitation provides an opportunity to develop mental toughness and positive coping strategies.
Biomechanical Analysis
Movement Efficiency
Biomechanical analysis involves assessing an athlete’s movement patterns, technique, and body mechanics. By analysing these factors, experts can identify areas for improvement and help athletes optimise their movement efficiency. Adjusting technique and body mechanics can enhance performance by reducing energy wastage, improving power transfer, and increasing movement economy
Injury Prevention
Biomechanical analysis helps identify movement flaws or imbalances that may predispose athletes to injuries. By addressing these issues, athletes can mitigate injury risks and optimise their training without compromising their long-term health and performance.
Technique Optimisation
Biomechanical analysis provides insights into optimising technique and form in specific sports movements. Coaches and experts can identify key biomechanical markers associated with performance and provide targeted feedback to refine technique, timing, and coordination. Improved technique can enhance power generation, accuracy, speed, and overall performance.
Equipment and Gear Optimisation
Biomechanical analysis can also inform decisions regarding equipment selection and gear optimisation. Based on an athlete’s biomechanics, experts can recommend appropriate footwear, gear, or equipment modifications that align with their individual needs, enhancing comfort, support, and performance.

Josh Walmsley2024-03-07 They have fixed me many times! Alex is a miracle worker naomi hadley2024-03-06 Had my 1st session with Rick yesterday after bodging my knee somehow. By the end of the session my pain was much lower and my rom was much improved. Very knowledgeable! Highly recommended by me! James Sprittles2024-03-06 I’ve had appointments with both Alex and Emily at Edgbaston/Moseley and have been amazed by the improvement since beginning with them. They have been able to both relieve muscle pain/tightness whilst giving me a bespoke training plan to improve my future health. I would certainly recommend them. Jagtar Marway2024-03-05 I have been having treatment from Jezzi for for a couple of years now for different issues. She is able to pinpoint the areas causing the issues and work on them with long term plans to prevent them from reappearing. I have seen different physios over many years but I have to say her treatment is the best for me. Rebecca Brennan2024-03-05 I have been going for physiotherapy at Achieve (Edgbaston) for over 4 years and continue to do so. I have seen Rickie, Jezzy and Mitzi. They are all great. Achieve was recommended to me and I have recommended them to others seeking out a physiotherapist. Definitely give them a try if you are looking for a physio. M Rai2024-03-05 I’ve been seeing Rick at Achieve Health over the past few months and he’s helped tremendously with my back pain. I highly recommend Achieve Health who provide a holistic assessment and a good mix of physical therapy with self-care advice to keep potential future issues at bay. Efe Okoro2024-03-05 ‘Highly recommending’ Achieve Health may be a massive understatement… I am currently seeing Rickie and Beth for Physiotherapy and deep tissue work and I am super impressed! Not only are they both immensely knowledge and professional, but the teamwork between them also means my sessions are specific, targeted and I am always aware of the steps needed in my rehabilitation, which I have not experienced at other physiotherapy establishments! Having a gym where they can show and watch my rehab exercises is also a massive plus for me! Thanks Achieve!!!! Manjinder Singh2024-03-04 Just over a year ago I decided to finally see a physio after 6months of back pain at 25! I couldn't stand up properly, sit down or lie down. I went to see Jezzie and she pretty quickly narrowed down the possibilities and got to work. Over the past year she's methodically brought me back to my best, something i've not felt for a few years, and offered plenty of exercises/workout plans to continue on my own. Now I go for maintenance appointments every quarter. Jezzie is conversational and knows her job and physiotherapy like the back of her hand, she has fountain of knowledge which puts me at ease as a client.Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 239 reviews
