Why This Course Stands Out

• Expert-Led Instruction: Benoy Mathew is a highly specialist physiotherapist and works as an advanced practice Physiotherapist for the National Health Service (NHS), London, and also in private practice in Central London, mainly treating runners and complex lower limb injuries. He qualified as a physiotherapist in 1998 and completed his Masters in London in 2014. Clinically, he specializes in the management of difficult musculoskeletal and sports injuries with a particular focus on overuse running injuries and young hip and knee injuries. He is passionate about the application of research in clinical practice and is involved in regular teaching on multiple courses, both in the UK and overseas. More than 2500 participants from 12 countries have attended his course in the last 8 years. He is a Master Trainer in Shockwave therapy and is the UK head of education for Venn Health Care. He is also a trained MSK Sonographer and uses diagnostic ultrasound regularly, in his clinical practice.
