Gareth has just completed his 6-week placement at the MIHP, under the supervision of his University Lecturers, Dale Walker and Ray Healy.

Physiotherapy uses lots of “medical jargon” and it’s easy to get your words mixed up.

Gareth confused the muscles of the Peronei (muscles at the outside of the ankle) with Peroni (an Italian Beer), at least it was not perineum!

Gareth already helps a Chartered Physiotherapists with their clinic at Awesome Walls climbing centre in Stockport and has just gained his qualification in Sports Massage.

Gareth has been learning new “hands on” techniques including Myofascial release with an Instrument Assist (we use Rock Blades in the Clinic), Joint Mobilisations, Electrotherapy (we use Compex in the Clinic) and Exercise prescription.

Gareth would highly recommend this experience to other students before they go out on their MSK Placement.
