Speed Up Your Recovery from Acute Ankle Sprains in Liverpool with Shockwave and EMTT Treatments!
Ankle sprains are one of the most common injuries in the UK, with around 1.5 million people suffering with them each year. The most common group to suffer from ankle sprains are people aged between 16-25 years old. Football has the highest rate of ankle sprains in the UK, with over 1 million people sustaining the injury each year. Other sports with a high prevalence of ankle sprains include rugby, netball and basketball. It usually takes 6-8 weeks for a mild ankle sprain to heal, but this can vary depending on the severity of the injury.
Are you looking for a way to speed up your recovery from an acute ankle sprain in Liverpool? If so, consider the combination of shockwave and EMTT treatments offered at our clinic! This innovative treatment combination has been proven to significantly reduce the time and discomfort associated with an acute ankle sprain, allowing athletes to get back to their sports and exercise faster.
Shockwave therapy works by delivering high energy sound waves to the affected area clinically proven to stimulate healing and reduce pain. It is particularly effective in treating acute ankle sprains because it helps to reduce inflammation and repair damaged tissue. EMTT, on the other hand, is a treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate healing at a cellular level, normalising cell function and reducing inflammation in the injured area.
We understand the importance of getting you back on your feet quickly, so our goal is to get you back to your sports and exercise as soon as possible. Combined, these two treatments can provide a very effective and efficient recovery from an acute ankle sprain. Our experienced physiotherapist will assess the injury and tailor a rehabilitation program to meet your individual needs.
A study conducted by the Orthopedic Department of the University of Milan found that patients who received the shockwave and EMTT combination experienced a reduction in pain and inflammation, as well as an increase in range of motion after only four weeks of treatment.
At our clinic, we are committed to providing athletes in Liverpool with the best possible care for their injuries. With our combination of shockwave and EMTT treatments, you can expect to experience a significant reduction in the time and discomfort associated with injuries.
