“My name is Pierre Ballerio, and I work with the Monaco Sevens Rugby team. The most frequently occurring injuries that I encounter looking after the players in this group include trauma to the joints, shocks and bone edemas, tendonitis, muscle damage, fatigue, aches, pains, sprained ankles, as well as shoulder and finger injuries.

If injured, most players will receive daily care and rehabilitation sessions combining physiotherapy and osteopathy. After they have received these treatments and the team doctor has completed their medical check, I will start treating players with INDIBA, cryotherapy, and targeted hydration.

INDIBA is different from other techniques because you can administer the therapy quickly, and results can be seen incredibly fast. This can be observed in the players’ immediate reduction of pain and a feeling of tissue recovery.”
