Recently Aart van Gorkum and UBC clinical placement Physiotherapist Carly Lockbaum held a Soccer Talk session for young boys and girls at Main Street Physiotherapy Clinic.

As part of Carly’s placement she did a presentation to a local soccer team (players & coaches) on strength exercises, injury prevention and enhancing their performance. By relaying this information to the coaches and parents, they are able to better educate their athletes and reduce the possibility of sports injuries.

Sports injury prevention and education is a practice that Main Street Physiotherapy provides for all kinds of sports. Here are some pictures from the talk, enjoy!

As a personal trainer who works with all types of populations, it is essential to have a physiotherapist who I can refer clients to with trust. The advice Mike gives is accurate, honest and always in the client’s best interest. Add to this his outstanding diagnostic abilities, and you have a physio head and shoulders above the average.”
