The right tools for the job
At The Body Mech, we use advanced sports therapy techniques in Chorley to deliver faster recovery, better mobility, and long-lasting results.
Our methods are designed for people who want more than temporary relief. Each technique is chosen to suit your body’s needs on the day, helping reduce pain, restore movement, and prevent recurring issues.
Percussion therapy
At The Body Mech, percussion therapy helps relieve deep muscle tension, reduce soreness, and accelerate recovery. This technique uses rhythmic vibration to stimulate blood flow and relax the body, making it ideal for athletes, gym-goers, and anyone needing effective pain relief and mobility restoration.

PNF stretching
PNF Stretching (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) is one of the most effective flexibility and mobility enhancement methods available. At our sports therapy clinic in Chorley, we use it to increase range of motion, strengthen muscles, and improve coordination.
Flexibility Beyond Limits
Increased Flexibility
PNF stretching helps achieve deeper and longer-lasting improvements in flexibility than traditional static stretching.
Improved Muscle Function
By activating and relaxing targeted muscles, this technique boosts neuromuscular efficiency and enhances performance in sport and everyday movement. Whether you are training for performance, recovering from injury, or simply improving your posture, this method supports faster, safer progress.

More than just a crack
Enhanced Nervous System Function
By correcting joint restrictions and improving spinal movement, this therapy promotes better nerve communication throughout the body.
Reduced Stress and Tension
Releases muscle tightness, restores balance, and encourages full-body relaxation for both physical and mental relief. Spinal manipulation is particularly effective for those struggling with back or neck pain, posture problems, or tension headaches.

Cupping/ hijama
Cupping therapy, also known as Hijama, is an ancient technique that uses suction cups to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and support detoxification. At The Body Mech, we offer both dry and wet cupping for effective pain relief and recovery.
Ancient therapy over 3000 years old
Improved Circulation
Cupping enhances blood flow to the treated area, bringing oxygen and nutrients to muscles and joints to promote faster healing.
Detoxification
Wet cupping (Hijama) helps remove toxins and stagnant blood from the body, improving natural recovery and energy levels. This therapy is often combined with sports massage or PNF stretching to boost recovery, mobility, and overall wellbeing.
