I had a strained hip flexor. Isy waa great, helped providing some therapy and suggested some strengthening exercises. Recovered and back to running in no time. Thanks so much!

I have to say that my experience has been nothing other than incredible. It was my first Marathon and Isy took care of my body and my nutrition and she was with me ‘in my sessions’ but also stayed with me ‘outside’ and checked in post to see how I was. Her wealth of knowledge and experience is second to none and my advice is embrace what she offers and go with it because it works. If you are looking for a nice massage and cup of tea then Isy is not for you. If you are serious and looking for results then be brave, be all in and go with her and you will get what you need. For me - that was a complete first marathon, feeing good and more to come ….and Isy will be part of the next journey when I decide what it is. Thankyou!!!!

I initially went to see Isy to just get the knots out of my back. However after a preliminary chat where I reeled off various back and leg issues she set to work trying to resolve those. With the acupuncture, massage and exercise program I soon started to see a difference. Isy would check in with me regularly and was very encouraging throughout. Fingers crossed the issues with my glute/hip/leg are now resolved but should I need assistance again I will definitely go back to her, highly recommend.

I've just completed my third session at Elite Performance Therapy, and I can't recommend them enough. Isy is a fantastic therapist, she has a brilliant balance of professionalism to get results, while still being incredibly friendly and welcoming. Great experience overall.

I’ve had an excellent experience working with Elite performance therapist. Isobel’s knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail have made a real difference to my recovery and overall physical performance. Isobel takes the time to understand the root cause of issues rather than just treating the symptoms, and then explains everything clearly so i understand the purpose behind each exercise or treatment. This approach builds confidence and makes it easier to stay committed to the recovery process. What really stands out is Isobels ability to combine technical expertise with a genuinely supportive and encouraging attitude. Sessions are always well structured, and she adapts treatments and plans based on progress and feedback. As a result, I’ve seen noticeable improvements in mobility, strength, and injury prevention. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to improve performance, recover from injury, or maintain long-term physical health.

I have been seeing Isy for the last 4 months. I initially contacted her because of leg and lower back pain that was starting to cause me problems with hiking and standing still. Isy quickly identified some long standing issues and set to work on me. She has worked wonders and more recently has helped me train/prepare for an epic adventure to hike to the summit of Mt Kilimanjaro. I am pleased to say that with Isy’s strength and core training I reached the summit. Isy is a lovely person and she takes time to understand her clients so that each session is beneficial. If you need someone you can trust, look no further!

I've seen a dozen therapists over the decades but Issy has been the most effective and dedicated. Since I've been consistent with preventative sessions a long term issue has been fully resolved. I wouldn't go anywhere else now, Issy is party of my long term longetivity plan.

Lyndz Bromage

Isy has been fantastic. I had servere lower back problems which were interfering with my work; Isy offered different therapies along with home exercises which has done the trick. I would 100% recommend her.

Hannah Clarkson

If there was an option to give 10 🌟 I would give it! The personal care, support and level of professionalism is outstanding and I feel better physically and mentally having had treatment. 100% recommend.

Padel and Tennis Injury Treatment and Prevention at Elite Performance Therapy

Padel and tennis are dynamic racquet sports that demand agility and precision but can lead to injuries from their intense movements. At Elite Performance Therapy, we specialize in treating and preventing injuries for padel and tennis players, helping you return to the court with confidence and strength.

Common Padel and Tennis Injuries and Our Approach

Repetitive motions, rapid directional changes, and improper technique often result in injuries, impacting areas like the shoulders, elbows, knees, and lower back. Here’s how we address the most frequent issues:

1. Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)

Repetitive racket swings can strain forearm muscles, causing pain on the outer elbow. We use treatments like dry needling and manual muscle manipulation, combined with customized exercises, ergonomic advice, and bracing to alleviate pain and support recovery.

2. Knee Ligament Sprains

Sudden stops and pivots in padel and tennis place stress on the knees, potentially causing sprains to ligaments like the ACL or MCL. We create tailored rehab plans with strengthening exercises, joint mobilization, and proprioceptive training to ensure a complete recovery.

3. Rotator Cuff Injuries

Overhead motions like serves and smashes can strain the shoulder’s rotator cuff, leading to pain and limited mobility. Our evidence-based approach, grounded in the latest research, heals complex shoulder injuries by:

Enhancing strength
Improving flexibility
Restoring range of motion
Optimizing joint stability and lubrication
Refining proprioception

4. Low Back Pain

Twisting, bending, and abrupt movements in padel and tennis can contribute to low back pain, particularly with poor posture. Our holistic care includes manual manipulation and tailored exercises to relieve pain, enhance flexibility, and strengthen core stability, enabling pain-free play.
