Bio:

Dominic arrived in the UK in April 2001 and has spent the last 8 years working in private practices and hospitals in the London area. As a keen sports man himself his interest lead him to want to work with sports injuries and Dominic is currently in his third year of a Master's degree in Sports Physiotherapy.


He has an interest in the management of musculoskeletal injuries in the active population but also in more specialist areas of sport and is a team physiotherapist for a football club on a part-time basis. His ambition is to work in the professional sport arena full-time, so what better place to demonstrate his talents than here at Thinq Fitness. He observes that the competitive spirit seems just as ardent in the professional athlete as it is in the weekend athlete making his work in the active population just as challenging and rewarding.

Thanks Huw, glad this is helping, ha ha the bull in the china shop is possible what caused the ankle problem in the first place? So, yes, go cautiously using these techniques, equally, go cautiously in day to day life, stepping off curbs, turning suddenly, jumping off a high surface etc and especially beware of any bulls!!! take care Lucy :)

That hits the spot! I can begin to feel the benefit and will continue to use this set of exercises even when the ankle is better. As it certainly benefits the lower leg. I would say though that you need to start slowly and take regular rests, build up your time slowly and not go at it like a bull in a china shop.
