Sports Injury Specialists in Leeds?
December 02, 2010, 03:47:34 pm
Afternoon all,

Well as some of you know I trashed my ankle at Almscliffe a while ago and its now recovered to a point where I can walk normally again. I've had a couple of physio sessions at St James' but have been advised to seek out a specialist (preferably one who knows a bit about climbing related injuries) for some more specific advice.
Does anyone know of such a person/clinic in Leeds?
I'd heard something about one at the uni but can't seem to find much info on that.

Cheers in advance

I use a fantastic guy in Scarborough, Adam Smith.
Let me know if you need contact details.
Definitely worth the drive.

Scarbrough's a tad far to be honest matey, I'm car-less at the moment so I'm really looking for someone in or close to Leeds.

Cheers though.

I saw a guy at Aireborough leisure centre in Guiseley who was very good,though about 10 years ago he may well still be there . Give em a ring and see if they still have a physio clinic

Rory Holliday runs a physio clinic at The Depot on Tuesdays 7-8pm. He climbs a bit and is obviously used to dealing with climbers.

i stand to be corrected, but i can't imagine what help a specfic knowledge of climbing would have with managing an ankle injury, any good musculoskeletal physio should be able to sort you out.

ATFL?
