Whitby Trip

This is scheduled for Monday 22ndJune . Names will be taken over the next couple of weeks for those who want to go on the trip . The train will leave Middlesbrough about 10am picking up on the way . We return from Whitby just after 4pm . I don't expect the cost to be more than £5 per person for the return journey - but this will be confirmed after the committee meeting on Monday


For Your Information from

Teesside university MSK sports Therapy Clinics

Good morning,

My name is Tom, and I am the Clinical Supervisor for the Sports Therapy and Rehabilitation course at Teesside University. I would like to share some information about the services we offer, which may be of benefit to you or your members.

At Teesside University, we run a variety of clinics designed to support individuals experiencing injury, pain, or reduced activity levels. These clinics include:

Massage Clinic

Delivered by our first-year students under the supervision of qualified staff.
Patients can discuss areas of pain or dysfunction and receive soft tissue therapy aimed at reducing aches and pains, relieving tension, and improving movement.

Rehabilitation Clinic

Run by our second-year students, also supervised by qualified staff, in our well-equipped rehabilitation facility.
Patients are guided through safe and effective exercise-based management of their injury or area of concern. Rehabilitation plans are personalised, with the focus on helping individuals return to activity and achieve their own goals. Sessions are planned collaboratively to build confidence and ensure patients feel comfortable continuing their exercises at home and returning to normal daily activities.

Injury Clinic

Delivered by our third-year students under the supervision of experienced clinicians.
This clinic provides assessment, treatment, and management of both short- and long-term injuries and pain. Each appointment includes a detailed discussion of symptoms, movement, pain history, and personal goals, followed by a full assessment to determine the most effective management plan based on the patient’s needs.

Please note that patients do not need to be physically active or have a specific injury to benefit from our clinics. General aches, pains, or activity-related goals can be assessed and managed in any of our services.

Clinic Costs

Our services are open to the public at subsidised rates:

  • £20 for an initial assessment
  • £10 for follow-up reassessments
  • £10 for massage or rehabilitation sessions
    Payment is by card only on the day of the appointment.

Location

The clinic is located in the Centuria Building on the Teesside University campus, ground floor, room HS0.17. Please follow the signs for the Sports Therapy Clinic.
