At Doncaster Foot Clinic, we regularly get to see patients come through our doors who are athletes experiencing injury. Whilst everyone who visits our clinic wants up on their feet as soon as possible, it’s especially important to these patients that their injury is cleared up as
soon as possible so they can resume training and competing without compounding their ailment with side-effects like muscle atrophy or simply losing their edge.
The Athlete
Recently, we’ve had the pleasure of seeing Lindsy James. Lindsy is a Triathlete and Duathlete who regular competes for GB at international level! She’s no stranger to a visit to Doncaster Foot Clinic, after having a few sessions of laser pain therapy with us last year for a separate tendon injury.
The Injury
After feeling a pop in her calf, she was diagnosed with a calf strain and immediately had to cease training and competing. Lindsy is a born competitor, so ‘taking time off’ wasn’t something she wanted to for too long.
The Solution
Knowing how well we treated her tendon injury last year, she booked in for another appointment to see us. We prescribed her with Laser Pain Relief Therapy. This advanced therapy utilises high-level laser technology, which is both non-invasive and painless, aiming to significantly reduce inflammation, swelling, and pain while promoting the body’s natural healing processes. The therapy works by delivering concentrated light energy directly into damaged or inflamed tissues, stimulating a series of molecular and cellular responses that accelerate recovery and provide relief from pain.
The Outcome
We’re so proud and excited to share that after only TWO TWENTY MINUTE sessions under the laser, not only was Lindsy pain-free immediately, but she was able to complete multiple long distance runs with no problems reported. From ceasing all training to feeling 100% better in no time at all!
