Following the Blackberry Clinic's treatment of several England and Premiership football players, the Clinic Director, Dr Simon Petrides, has recently lectured at the Football Association's Medical Society Conference, hosted by Liverpool Football Club.

22nd November, 2011:

The lecture included the role of Prolotherapy in elite sports and the use of ‘Fluoroscopic Kinematic Analysis’ for the diagnosis of complicated back pain and instability.

The treatment of high profile Manchester United stars, such as Rio Ferdinand, with prolotherapy has raised the profile of this type of treatment for elite sportsmen and women. At the Blackberry Clinic we are able to provide these treatments and expertise for the benefit of all our patients. We have two purpose built theatres along with a fluoroscope in each to provide direct X-ray guidance of injections, to optimise efficacy and safety.
