Mr Salus ‘ Sporting Lab has opened a new sports injury clinic in central London, near Bank Station and Cannon Street Station.
We have equipped our new sports clinic with a cutting-edge, made-in-Switzerland Shockwave Therapy Machine.
We have equipped this sports lab with the latest physiotherapy tools for Instrument Soft Tissue Mobilisation Treatment (IASTM), which will be performed by our expert sports Physiotherapists.
Mr Salus Sporting Lab has now opened a new Sports Injury Clinic in Brixton, where our expert sports physiotherapists will provide the local community with an Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation treatment.
Our state-of-the-art sports clinic in Brixton is located just 4 minutes walking from the Railway station and 7 minutes walking from the Brixton underground station, serviced by the fast and effective Victoria Line.
At Mr Salus Sporting Lab, we believe in utilising the synergy of EMS shockwave therapy and IASTM treatment to offer a powerful, evidence-based treatment for scar tissue and adhesions, one that can improve patient symptoms, accelerate recovery, and enhance long-term sports performance after a muscle injury.
Shockwave therapy (extracorporeal shock wave therapy, ESWT) delivers acoustic waves to the affected tissue, stimulating biological repair processes, promoting angiogenesis, and reducing pain.
At our sports injury clinic in London, we use EMS EMS-DolorClast® Radial Shock Waves, which are delivered in a controlled, patient-friendly manner.
IASTM therapy is a physiotherapy technique that utilises specific stainless-steel tools to perform soft-tissue mobilisation of the muscles, tendons, and fascia.
IASTM treatment is extremely effective in treating scar tissue and adhesion formation after a muscle tear or tendon rupture.
Initial Assessment
Clinical evaluation of your muscle injury, pain levels, and functional limitations.
Discussion of your history, and whether you’ve tried other treatments (stretching, orthotics, Physio Exercises, etc).
Shockwave Session
We deliver radial shockwave therapy using EMS’s DolorClast system, typically delivering 2,000–2,500 pulses at a frequency suited to your tolerance and pathology (e.g., 20 Hz, ~2.5 bar).
IASTM Therapy
After each session of shockwave therapy, we perform a session of IASTM therapy within 6 days
We reassess at each visit and at the end of the course. Frequently, we see significant improvements by week/session 3–6.
We emphasise long-term maintenance through daily exercises, and we monitor for recurrence.
Safety & Comfort
Both therapies are non-invasive, with minimal risk when delivered by expert physiotherapists.
This combined strategy to use both Shockwave and Laser Therapy is very powerful to treat scar tissue and adhesion formation for many reasons, such as:
Synergy: Manual soft tissue mobilisation combined with the mechanical action of shockwaves maximises the breakdown effect of scar tissue and adhesions.
Evidence-based: Clinical trials support both therapies individually.
Long and short-term results: Shockwave therapy and IASTM therapy have shown both long and short-term benefits to treat muscles and tendon injury compared with only physio exercise.
You may benefit from combined shockwave + IASTM if:
You have chronic muscle pain (e.g., >6 months) and have not fully responded to conservative management.
You’re looking for a non-surgical, non-drug approach to a muscle injury
You can commit to a course of multi-week treatments + home rehab.
You want a technology-driven, evidence-based treatment for muscle injury and scar tissue.
The combined use of radial shockwave therapy and IASTM treatment represents a state-of-the-art, non-invasive strategy for managing muscle injuries. By harnessing the complementary mechanisms of mechanical stimulation (shockwave) and manual soft tissue mobilisation, we can enhance pain relief, accelerate healing, and improve function.
At Mr Salus Sporting Lab, we are proud to offer this combined protocol, backed by clinical evidence and real-world success, to help you get back on your feet confidently.
If you’re experiencing persistent muscle and/or tendon pain, or suspect a scar tissue formation from a previous muscle injury, book an initial treatment and assessment with us today.
