Biomechanical Alignment and Sports Injuries

Years of experience in competitive athletics fitness training and university lecturing allows Mo to specialize in the complex field of biomechanical alignment, and the treatment of sports related injuries. Incorrect alignment of the body's joints and bones can cause acute and long term injury affecting daily activities. Misaligned joints can cause long term muscular tightness and adverse changes to posture and subsequent pain. Sporting activities place great stress on the body and when combined with underlying biomechanical problems have the potential to cause injury. Some of the conditions which are often related to biomechanical misalignment and sports injuries, are:

- Achilles tendonitis
- Aching legs
- Ankle injuries/pain
- Alignment problems
- Bursitis
- Back pain
- Bunions
- Calf tightness
- Compartment syndrome
- Disc Bulge
- Flat feet/ Over-pronation

- Hamstring tightness

- Hip pain
- Illotibial band friction syndrome
- Knee pain
- Leg length difference
- Muscle imbalance
- Morton's neuroma

- Piriformis syndrome
- Plantar fasciitis
- Recurrent muscle injuries
