Get in touch with Dorset Sports Physio to find out more about physiotherapy, coaching and injury prevention.
Sports physiotherapy at Dorset Sports Physio is specialist assessment, diagnosis and hands-on treatment for racquet sport injuries. Based at Advantage Padel in Mudeford, Christchurch, the clinic is led by David Ruth, a chartered physiotherapist specialising in the injuries that affect pickleball, padel and tennis players. No GP referral is needed, you can book directly online.
Whether you are carrying a long-standing tennis elbow, a shoulder niggle that flares every time you serve, or an Achilles that stiffened up after your last match, treatment starts from the very first appointment. David combines clinical assessment with a deep understanding of racquet sport mechanics, so rehab plans are specific to your sport, your position on court and your goals, not a generic exercise sheet.
A thorough physical assessment identifies the true cause of your pain. You leave your first appointment knowing exactly what is wrong and what to do about it.
Evidence-based rehab progressions get you back on court safely and quickly, with court-side testing at Advantage Padel before you return to competitive play.
Recurring elbow, shoulder or knee problems usually have an underlying cause. Treatment addresses mechanics and load, not just the painful area, so injuries stop coming back.
