At Watford Injury Clinic, I help athletes and active adults recover from injuries and manage spine-related pain using targeted spinal manipulation. Treatments are tailored to your sport, goals, and lifestyle, with a focus on safety and evidence-informed practice.
I’m a sports therapist who uses precise spinal manipulation as part of a broader approach to injury recovery, mobility, and performance. Each plan combines manual techniques, personalized exercises, and movement coaching.
Conditions I treat
- Back and neck pain, sciatic-type symptoms, sports-related strains, whiplash, recurrent injuries, stiffness, and mobility limitations affecting performance.
How I work (approach)
- Comprehensive assessment → personalized treatment plan → hands-on treatment may include spinal techniques → tailored home exercises → periodic re-assessment and progression.
What to expect at your first visit
