Before you book

  • Check the sports therapist is a graduate member of a body such as the Society of Sports Therapists
  • Bring training shoes and kit to the sports therapy session
  • See your GP or an HCPC-registered physiotherapist rather than a sports therapist for serious or worsening injuries
  • Ask how many sports therapy sessions are likely and the cost of each
