Medical Matters with Paris Payne
We came away from last week's visit to Sale with little more than a few bumps and bruises, and I am hoping for the same (medical) outcome today.I sometimes think that the metaphor of viewing our players as formula one cars and my department as mechanics is not far off the truth. This last 12 days or so has given us plenty of 'tinkering' time to try and tune up certain key first team players. They should come into today's challenge, refreshed and ready to fire on all cylinders.
One recent addition to our skills kitbag was undertaking training in the Active Release Technique (ART). The technique has been developed in the USA over the last 15 years and is now used extensively throughout the NFL. Together with our Rhinos colleagues, we are now the first professional sports organisation in the UK to be trained in this technique.
In basic terms, this method of manipulating the muscles and other soft-tissues differs from other treatment types as it combines manual input with active movement from the patient. By placing our hands in precise anatomical positions and getting the patient to move we are able to release muscle tension , affect nerve function and assist the body to move without restrictions. We find the technique quick to administer, results are immediate and the effect can be profound. We are now using ART as our first-line approach to soft-tissue management. The players have given us positive feedback and we are hoping that as the season progresses, ART will help give us an edge in helping to keep your team fit to enjoy playing winning rugby!
Danny Paul, Joe Bedford, James Craig and Scott Freer are all progressing well following surgery and I will bring you up to speed next time.
Olympic Gold with ART®
"Over the last few years while playing for the Dallas Stars, I have been receiving ART (Active Release Therapy) by Dr. Troy Van Biezen. ART helps keep me on the ice performing at a high competitive level. No other treatment has been as effective as ART. Dr. Van Biezen has been a tremendous help in keeping my muscles free and clear of scar tissue with ART and helping me recover so rapidly. Thank you Dr. Van Biezen!"Brenden Morrow,
