Preston Swimming Club We are the proud sponsors and physiotherapists for the Preston Swimming Club.
The Practice owner of Ambulant Physiotherapist, Martha Richardson, HPC Registred Physiotherapist, is available at the swimming club sessions at West View Leisure Centre to give poolside advice to swimmers and parents. She attends the Wednesday training sessions where she welcomes questions regarding pains, injuries and weaknesses.
The poolside advise is of a more general nature due to limited facilities and time, but frequently, stretches and exercise can be enough to return to maximum capacity. A full assessment will highlight an underlying weakness, and is therefore of great benefit. There are a wide range of treatments for swimmers available from the team at Ambulant Physiotherapy Ltd which encompass the ethos…keeping you mobile. A 10% discount is applied to all members of the Preston Swimming Club at Ambulant Physiotherapy Ltd.
