Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy at Colliery Recovery covers diagnostics, treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal problems — back, neck and joint pain, sports overload, post-injury rehabilitation and movement-pattern correction. Each session starts with an assessment, after which the physiotherapist combines manual techniques, targeted exercise and supporting tools (RockBlades soft-tissue mobilisation, Flossband compression, kinesiotaping, Theragun percussion) as needed. The team includes university-trained physiotherapists and a specialist in pregnancy and postpartum care, and the studio's signature 'path from pain' approach guides clients from first diagnosis through therapy to independent training in the adjoining gym. Options include a 500 Kč intake consultation, standard 1,000 Kč therapy sessions, and 900 Kč FyzioSession one-to-one exercise training.

Physiotherapy is the healthcare discipline focused on diagnosing, treating and preventing disorders of the musculoskeletal system — with the goals of improving movement function, reducing pain, preventing injury and raising overall quality of life. Colliery Recovery's physiotherapy team operates one floor above a busy CrossFit gym, which shapes its approach: therapy is practical, movement-based, and oriented toward returning clients to full activity rather than just short-term symptom relief. **The 'path from pain':** The studio frames its care as a structured journey. Pain is treated as the body's signal that something needs attention; the first appointment is a diagnostic session in which the physiotherapist identifies what the problem actually is and proposes a plan. Therapy sessions then combine manual treatment with active exercise, and as function improves, clients can transition to FyzioSession training — individual exercise sessions led by a physiotherapist — and ultimately back to independent training. **Service options:** - *Consultation & Diagnostics (500 Kč):* An intake appointment for clients who don't yet know what their problem is or which service they need. The physiotherapist performs an assessment and recommends the next step. - *Physiotherapy session (1,000 Kč):* Diagnostics plus hands-on treatment of a specific issue — back, neck, shoulder, hip, knee or ankle pain, sports overload, posture and movement-pattern problems, or post-injury rehabilitation. Techniques include manual therapy, soft-tissue work with RockBlades instruments, Flossband compression flossing, kinesiotaping and guided corrective exercise. - *Pregnancy and postpartum physiotherapy (1,000 Kč):* Led by Miri, who specialises in physiotherapy during pregnancy, preparation for birth, and postpartum recovery — sensitive, individually adapted care applying the same principles used with athletes. - *FyzioSession (900 Kč):* One-to-one exercise training led by a physiotherapist — the bridge between rehabilitation and performance training, ideal after completing acute therapy or for training safely with a known condition. - *Kinesiotaping (250 Kč):* Functional taping outside a therapy session — popular with athletes before competition. **The team:** Practitioners include Markéta (BSc Physiotherapy, Palacký University Olomouc), Michal and Jakub (physiotherapy-trained coaches who also work in the gym), and Miri (pregnancy and postpartum specialist). Because the team also coaches strength and conditioning, rehabilitation plans translate directly into real training programmes. **What to expect:** Wear comfortable sports clothing. The first session includes a movement assessment and history; bring any imaging or medical reports you have. Therapy is active — expect to move, not just lie on a table.
