- Joint mobilization techniques: They seek to restore the mobility and function of joints affected by injuries or imbalances.
- Assisted stretching and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques (FNP): Improve flexibility, prevent injuries and help regain mobility.
- Electrotherapy: Use of electric currents to relieve pain, reduce inflammation and promote tissue healing.
- Manual therapy: Includes techniques such as manipulation and mobilization to correct imbalances and improve body function.
- Proprioception and balance exercises: They help improve body awareness, stability and coordination, essential for injury prevention.
- Kinesiotaping: Elastic bandages that help reduce inflammation, improve circulation and support muscles and joints without restricting movement.
- Cryotherapy and thermotherapy: Use of ice or heat to reduce inflammation and pain, respectively.
- Strength and conditioning exercises: Designed to improve muscular endurance, strength and power, adapted to the needs of each athlete.
- Dry Needling: A technique that uses fine needles to treat myofascial trigger points (nodules of muscle tension) to reduce pain and improve muscle function.
