Selby Sports Injury Clinic

Sports Injury Feature - Shin Splints Clinic

Are you suffering from shin pain when running?
If you are a runner then it is likely that you have suffered shin pain at some point. If you are or have had shin pain, then it is likely that the cause is Shin Splints. At the Hull, Selby and new Lincoln Sports Injury Clinics there are regular Shin Splint Clinics every Wednesday.

Your Therapist will be able to identify if this is the case, carry out the appropriate treatment and advise on the best way to prevent recurrence. Recovery is greatest when you receive regular treatment, so why not take advantage of 30-minute treatment sessions at only £15.
