Q: Why should I check that my therapist is a Graduate Sports Therapist (Bsc Hons) before I receive treatment?

A: Because some ″Sports Therapists″ can obtain their qualifications through Diploma′s and other such courses often only studying for a matter of a few weeks. A Graduate Sports Therapist has studied for 3 years in order to understand the complexity of the human body and how best to treat and rehabilitate a huge array of injuries and conditions. Understanding the intricate and delicate nature of the human body is paramount to safe and effective treatment. Allowing your safety and wellbeing to be put in the hands of someone who is under qualified would be similar to taking medication prescribed by a ″doctor″ who had only studied for a few weeks.
