Get Back to the Action: Sports Therapy

Olivia Brown MSc Sports Medicine

I am so proud to announce that after two years of committing to a part time degree, alongside working and building her growing profile within GBTA Olivia has now obtained Masters with Distinction in Sports Medicine from Leeds Beckett University.

I have known Olivia since she undertook her undergraduate work placement with me 2018. Since she has come on board, she has worked hard, developing her knowledge and skills in various areas and is continuing to flourish into her Sports Therapy career.

Working and studying is not an easy task, especially with the travelling she was having to undertake. She has never let this affect her work both at clinic and at university and she can now take pride in her efforts and look forward to the future….and a glass of fizz!

Well done Liv!

Always humbling to receive unexpected emails from patients, especially when it's giving feedback about my team.

"Olivia treated my painful neck and shoulders the week before last. I just wanted to say a big thank you. The intense localised pain went almost immediately and then everything else has gradually resolved since then.
So you did a great job and I'm really grateful."

Well done Liv! 😀

To Patients, from Pippa Carrick

I am pleased to announce that Harry Ashworth (our Harry) will be returning to GBTA!

Harry was originally with us from 2017-2020. He returns no only with a 1st Class BSc Hons in Physiotherapy and HCPC registration, he is also now a married man.

I first met Harry as an undergraduate student, when I lead his peripheral mobilisation seminars at Teesside University. He stood out from day one and when he first came on board in 2017 he quickly became a popular figure within the clinic and with patients.

Harry’s career interest has always been in sports and musculoskeletal therapy and it was a sad moment when he left in 2020. However, it was always hoped that he would return to us one day if the circumstances were right. It will be great to have him back on board and with the additional knowledge, expertise and skills he has gained, using them to help our patients and develop the clinic now and in the future.

Harry will be working on select Saturdays until the new year and will then be on a more permanent working pattern from January 2026. All appointments with Harry are available to book online and any rota update swill be communicated once we have them.

I’m sure all our patients will wish Harry a happy return to clinic.

Changes to The Rehab Room
======================
It's been a really busy summer and for several have been unable to keep our popular the Rehab Room posts going. However, one of the reasons for this has been trying to find them more relatable and engaging for patients.

I am pleased to announce they will return after Stokesley Fair and Show and will be in our new format.

Stay tuned!
Pippa

Congratulation to patient Lizzy who placed 1st female in the Hardmoors 160mile in May 2025. She has given permission to have this photo uploaded and for me to discuss her build up to the event. she had an Achilles injury she was worried was going to mean she had to pull out of the event and 2 weeks prior we had a very honest conversation about this. I assured her I was confident the treatment regimen would work we would get her to the event and through it but if I wasn't happy in the week before the race I would recommended her pulling out.

It was thrilling to see not only had she managed to compete but that she had won the female category and she promised to bring the sword in to her next session, and I got my Dogtanian moment (if you're old enough to remember the cartoon) as well.

I am really pleased to see her success and be a small part of it. I want to wish her well as she undertakes the Lakeland 100 this weekend. Go Lizzy!
