Football injury prevention programs ⚽️

A study compared different interventions and determined that a general knee control program is more beneficial in some aspects than the traditional fifa 11 type.
While it showed this, all exercise is good exercise.

The control program consisted of
- 5 minutes of running
- bilateral and unilateral squats
- lunges
- hamstring exercises
- core exercises
- jumping and landing exercises.
2 rounds during every training session.

If you wanna know exactly what these exercises looked like. Send us a DM!

Study name:
Extended Knee Control programme lowers weekly hamstring, knee and ankle injury prevalence compared with an adductor strength programme or self-selected injury prevention exercises in adolescent and adult amateur football players: a two-armed cluster-randomised trial with an additional comparison arm

Body struggling with the end of football season?

We know that: pain = performance.
Being sore while playing reduces your performance quality, so why not get that sore hip or ankle checked out that you’ve carried during the season.
Coming up to the off season is also the perfect time to work a little bit on strength and conditioning to make sure you’re in shape for next season!

Message to see how we can help you!

Meet Lynda, our wonderful Massage Therapist....

I am an adventurous, energetic mum of two busy boys. My life has always revolved around sport and the outdoors, ranging from surfing, snowboarding, softball, hockey, horse riding, boxing and running. My passion lies in helping people reach their goals through health and wellness. When you know better and feel better, you do better! I aim to assist clients in the process of recovery and injury prevention.
Being able to help clients and live my passion is a dream come true.

In 2004 I completed my National & International Diploma with distinction in Natural Sciences, Somatology, CIDESCO. At the beginning of 2021 I received my qualifications as a Corrective Exercise Specialist (NASM-CES).
I have completed a number of marathons as well as played for the Border women's softball team in the South African interprovincial championships.
We have been living in Tauranga for nearly 5 years now and my highlight so far is being able to snowboard and surf on the same weekend. I absolutely love exploring all the wonderful outdoor tracks that we are surrounded by. You will often catch me running along the waterfront between Ferguson Park and Kulim Park or around the Waikareao Estuary. On the weekends I enjoy doing fun family adventures with my boys which normally always include sports matches and being at the beach.

Our part-time physiotherapist Teresa, or as some of you might know her - Tess, completed her Physiotherapy degree 8 years ago. After performing in the dance industry she combined her love for movement and physio by providing physiotherapy services to international touring theatre companies such as Strictly Ballroom and Book of Mormon.

In addition to physiotherapy Tess is an accredited comprehensive Polestar Pilates teacher and mentor. She loves to incorporate this into her physiotherapy practice, specialising in biomechanics and movement patterns.

Tess says that living in Matua has been a dream come true. You may see her this winter in her gumboots, going on a walk on the mudflats around the peninsula at sunset. Usually with a wet dog that looks like Hairy Maclary called "Hendricks".

Fun Fact: Tess started dancing at 4 years of age, has gained a Diploma of Dance Performance and 2 Diplomas in Dance Teaching for jazz and Tap, and still continues teaching to this day!
