In fact the RICE technique – rest, ice, compress, elevate is one of the most extensively used therapeutic modalities for treating and rehabilitating acute sport injuries. With this in mind, each of our clinics contain ice machine facilities to enable on the spot treatment for various acute injuries. We regularly use ice massage, cryo-cuff compression and ice pack treatments to allow best management of soft tissue injuries at your point of need.
