Rebecca Stone BSc - Sports Therapist

Rebecca Stone Sports Therapy Hello and welcome to my business page! I am able to treat musculo-skeletal injuries, regardless of their cause.
If you are wondering what ‘sports therapy’ is all about, let me enlighten you: I assess, treat and rehabilitate musculo-skeletal injuries. Despite my job title, your injury does not need to be sport-related, nor do you need an interest in sport. This means that the ‘one size fits all’ approach to rehabilitation has NO place in my clinic! I pride myself in tailoring my treatment and rehabilitation
I am out of the clinic until Tue 16th June.
Please feel free to leave me a message and I shall get back to you on my return.
Most of my clients will have heard me bang on about my obsession with salsa dancing. Well, this last week saw my professional world collide with that obsession. Myself and a few of my salsa family volunteered our time at Best Life Day Club, Winterbourne, Bristol. Best Life Day Club support people living with dementia by providing them with compassion, companionship and stimulation, both mentally and physically.
We were there to provide them with some light entertainment: salsa style. Before long though, bums were off seats and there was a keen interest to get involved. It was wonderful to see beaming smiles and chuckles of laughter ripple across the hall.
One lady in particular stood out for me. She was actively being encouraged to try dancing with us, but was resistant. She said she couldn't do it, she was in too much pain and she feared injuring herself. With a little persuasion and reassurance, she stood and started to move her feet to the music. Within moments, she was happy to move into an 'in hold' position and began partner dancing. 😲🙌
As our salsa session drew to a close, she was smiling from ear to ear. I asked her if she had enjoyed herself, to which she said 'very much so, yes' and I checked in with her pain level. She commented that her pain was almost gone. 🫶
Here's the thing about pain and neuroplasticity:
💃 the negative: pain can make us fearful and hesitant to move
💃 the positive: pain is changeable, which means we CAN manipulate and influence it in a positive way
💃 if we distract our brain from the negative, the positive can do its thing
💃 surrounding ourselves with people that make us smile and getting those endorphins racing, whilst getting that heart rate elevated can turn down the pain dial.
If you, or a loved one are finding that the fear of pain and/or lack of mobility is stopping you from experiencing life, please get in touch. There really can be a way to manage that pain dial and get you doing what may seem today, like the impossible.

Being part of a person's journey away from pain and into a future of progression and sense of achievement is one of the many reasons I love being a Sports Therapist.

This is why taking a thorough medical history is so important.
What at first may appear like a musculoskeletal problem, may infact be a more complex condition that requires further medical intervention. It is my job to identify when this may be the case and to advise accordingly.

🎁Give the gift of HEALTH this Christmas🎁
Is your loved one:
🎅 complaining of aches and pains?
🎅 embarking on a training plan for an event in 2026, for example: the London Marathon?
🎅 struggling to get rid of an injury?
🎅 a fan of sports massage?
🎅 worried that being in pain is their new 'normal'?
If the answer to any of the above is 'yes', then an E-Voucher would be the perfect gift. Please feel free to DM me with any queries.
NB: vouchers can also be redeemed for virtual consultations. I continue to work with people that live further afield that need support with pain and injury. It's not all about the hands-on stuff!
