You should start personal training once your physiotherapist or doctor clears you for exercise. At ATP, we work alongside your healthcare team to bridge the gap between clinical rehabilitation and full fitness. Many clients start with us while still undergoing physiotherapy, as we design programmes that complement their rehabilitation.
Injury rehab training focuses on restoring movement patterns, rebuilding strength around the injured area, and addressing compensations that develop during recovery. Your ATP trainer creates a progressive programme that respects healing timelines while systematically working toward full function and fitness.
Yes, one of the primary goals of our injury rehab programme is preventing re-injury. We identify and correct movement imbalances, strengthen supporting muscles, and improve joint stability. Research shows that targeted strength training significantly reduces the risk of re-injury compared to rest alone.
Our trainers work with a wide range of injuries including back pain, knee injuries, shoulder injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, sports injuries, and chronic pain conditions. We have experience with ACL reconstructions, rotator cuff repairs, disc herniations, and many other common musculoskeletal conditions.
While a referral is not required, we recommend consulting your doctor or physiotherapist before starting. Your ATP trainer will request information about your injury history and any medical clearances. This collaborative approach ensures your training programme is safe and aligned with your overall recovery plan.
