November 25, 2007 – 2:41 pm | posted in Sports Medicine / Fitness

The University of Hertfordshire has just launched Perform Sports Injury Clinic, which will offer support to local athletes competing in all types of sporting events.

Perform Sports Injury Clinic is open to all members of the public and is able to prevent, assess, treat, and rehabilitate sporting injuries. Treatments are based on the latest scientific evidence and research, and we have access to state-of-the-art facilities. The clinic is staffed by fully qualified sports therapists, and the University’s best graduates, improving their employability in an increasingly competitive market.

Naomi Butler, Lecturer in Sports Therapy at the University, explains: “Even the most minor of injury can have a significantly negative impact on sporting performance. Early intervention and comprehensive rehabilitation are essential in order to achieve optimal healing and prevent long term deficits. Our graduates will tailor treatment regimes to the individual athlete, ensuring that they are able to return to full sporting function in the shortest possible time.”

Perform Sports Injury Clinic offers services including injury prevention programmes, sports massage, electrotherapy, manual therapy, and sport-specific rehabilitation and exercise therapy.
