Firefly now available at athlete matters

Recover – improve – excel with firefly™
The sports recovery companion to help maximise your sporting performance
The firefly™ device increases blood flow to the muscles of the lower leg accelerating the removal of metabolic waste and reducing the delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS) within 24 hours.
The size of a wrist-watch and worn behind the knee, the firefly™ device delivers painless electrical impulses to the common peroneal nerve to activate the muscle pumps of the lower leg that return blood towards the heart.
Whether you’re a keen runner preparing for a marathon, a triathlete preparing for an Ironman, a player keen to get back on the field or a sporting enthusiast seeking a competitive advantage, the firefly™ device is the perfect addition to your kit bag!
The firefly™ device, which is portable, easily fits in to your lifestyle making it convenient when your body needs that little bit extra! The recovery device emulates the blood flow rate of walking – shown to be up to 70% - without having to exert energy. An alternative or supplement to active recovery, such as light jogging or swimming, use firefly™ in the office, sitting on a flight or relaxing at home!
Designed to keep you in peak condition, the scientifically proven firefly™ device is CE marked:
·         to increase blood circulation
·         reduce DOMS within 24 hours
·         for the prevention and treatment of oedema
·         for the prevention of venous thrombosis

Manchester Titans press release



ANNOUNCING ATHLETE MATTERS'  PARTNERSHIP WITH MANCHESTER TITANS

“We look forward to being part of a successful team and making a difference giving the Head Coach a selection dilemma with a full roster of super fit players raring to go!”

If you watch the NFL or NCAA football on the television, you will sometimes see a player lying on a massage table, being examined and treated by the team physiotherapist. The Titans have been looking for their own team physio, to help prevent, treat and rehabilitate injured players from the sideline during a game.

Manchester Titans are proud to announce the start of what we hope will prove to be an excellent partnership with Worsley based Physiotherapy Company “Athlete Matters”, who will be offering a discounted rate for treatment to all Titan Players.

As team physiotherapists Athlete Matters will also be providing game day support from pre game taping up of players to prevent injury, to side-line treatment of any injuries incurred during a game. This will be done with the assistance of physiotherapy students from Salford University, who will be supervised by a fully qualified and experienced physio.

*    Athlete Matters are delighted to support Manchester Titans
We look forward to being part of a successful team and making a difference giving the Head Coach a selection dilemma with a full roster of super fit players raring to go!

Working with American footballers, we need to understand the demands of the matches and the training methods so that we can effectively prevent and rehabilitate injuries and make sure as many players as possible are available for selection for every game.

Our aim at Athlete Matters is to make elite level physiotherapy and soft tissue treatment services available to all. Our friendly, well established clinic offers all athletes and the general public alike, the access to highly regarded and experienced Physiotherapists, Soft Tissue Therapists (Sports Massage) and a Sports Medicine Consultant. We understand that being unable to train or work is extremely frustrating and all our efforts go into returning you back to fitness as quickly as possible. Our knowledge enables us to offer a depth of understanding of the physical and non-physical stresses you may be experiencing.
