Sports Injuries

Whether you are training for a specific goal, or just like kicking a ball around with the kids in the weekend, sporting injuries can and do happen.

sports Osteopathy can help with many of these.

Participation in sporting activities has many benefits.  However, as well as all the benefits comes a greater degree of load, exertion and strain.  Many sporting injuries are often due to overuse issues associated with training. Occasionally, incorrect or ill-fitting equipment can cause problems.
