Movement Therapy for Pain & Performance
Assessment, treatment and exercise for people experiencing pain or working towards a specific performance goal.
Working with Pain, Movement & Performance
Movement Therapy combines assessment, hands-on treatment and exercise. It can be used when you are experiencing pain, having difficulty with a particular movement or working towards a specific performance goal.
People come to THRIVE Studio for a range of reasons, from back, neck, foot and ankle problems to pain associated with everyday activities, work or sport.
Alex also works with dancers and other sportspeople where the aim may be to address pain, improve a particular movement or work towards a performance goal.
- Pain — for problems affecting everyday activities, work, exercise or sport.
- Movement — looking at movements or activities that are difficult, uncomfortable or relevant to the problem.
- Performance — working on specific physical requirements for sport or dance.
- Individual approach — assessment, treatment and exercise are used according to what is relevant to the individual.
Understanding What You Need to Work On
Your first session includes a discussion about the problem or goal and an assessment of relevant movement and function.
The assessment can help identify what may be contributing to the problem and what would be useful to work on. Depending on what is found, the session can include hands-on treatment and specific exercises.
Where appropriate, exercises identified through Movement Therapy can also be incorporated into your 1-to-1 Pilates sessions or Pilates classes at THRIVE Studio.
