We are Back, Muscle and Joint Specialists. We accept all patients, self paying and insured.

Sport & Exercise Medicine

Sport & Exercise Medicine doctors manage a huge range of injuries and medical conditions affecting elite athletes, amateur sportsmen and the general population. Our specialists treat acute or chronic sports injuries and musculoskeletal conditions like arthritis. They can help prevent further injury and reoccurrence and guide a rehabilitation programme to aid full recovery and a successful return to sport and activity.

Our doctors use fluoroscopic x-ray and ultrasound guidance at most Blackberry Clinics to aid accurate diagnosis and injections. They will refer for MRI or surgery if necessary. Exercise Medicine consultations are offered, using exercise as a health tool to drive health improvement.

Blackberry Clinic receives glowing feedback!

Lorena-Testimonial

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Lorena has changed my life. Four months ago, having been diagnosed as having “severe, acute and chronic” disc degeneration I genuinely thought I was facing a life of disability (I am 49).

Lorena has re-taught me how to move my body and how to think about what muscles I engage to a point that I am now running, swimming and doing pilates again and have almost full flexibility in my spine. It almost feels like Lorena can see through your skin to your muscles, so profound is her understanding of how the body moves.
