Services and Pricing

Below is a list of services we offer as part of the Sports Injury and Rehabiliation Clinic. If you have any questions, you can contact SIRC@northampton.ac.uk

We operate under the current BASRaT clinical practice guideline and ask if you could take a moment to read the following points below:

  • To conduct your assessment and treatment effectively, it is important to wear appropriate and comfortable clothing to your appointment. This is to ensure that your therapist can examine the affected area easily. Shorts and a vest are often the most suitable clothing. Please do not wear jeans as these are quite restrictive.
  • Please also bring with you any relevant operation notes, investigation results, medication information etc.
  • On arrival we ask that you arrive NO more than 10 minutes before your appointment time to minimise contact with others.
  • We ask all clients to sanitise their hands on entering and leaving the clinic.
  • As you enter the Creative Hub building, you will see a sign to indicate the waiting and seating area.  A student will meet you here and take you through the security barriers and into the clinic for your appointment.

If you require someone to accompany you to the appointment (if disabled or under 18 years of age), then please let us know in advance by emailing SIRC@northampton.ac.uk

For more information, please visit the BASRaT website.
