Senior Sports Therapist

Kat Buckland

Clinic location : Bath

I’ve always been part of competitive sports, both as an individual and part of a team, so have witnessed and experienced various injuries seeing how they have affected myself or others. I have always enjoyed the theory and anatomy side, so I am lucky to combine my interests. Outside of clinic life I am a keen hockey player, cricketer and dressage rider with my 2 horses.

I completed my sports therapy degree at Hartpury University, while I was there I developed my skills within the top flight rugby teams on site, who allowed me to test and expand my clinical knowledge as I learned more. I have also worked with post London marathon finishers, GB Skating, Welsh Hockey and also testing out pitchside first aid in various rugby/ netball sevens competitions. I managed to develop research into areas of interest (mainly biomechanics) by completing a study into EMG and kinematics of dressage riders lower limbs within different paces.

Since graduating I have been lucky enough to work in professional, recreational sport and also the general public in private practice. It doesn't matter who the individual is, they deserve to be at maximum capacity and pain free. I want to be able to help anyone that feels that they need help, there’s nothing more rewarding than having a patient that’s struggled to put their t-shirt on due to shoulder pain and once the treatment is completed automatically get dressed pain free. The joy on their faces is priceless! I have since added to my experience by completing post graduate in sports performance nutrition and im currently studying for my level 4 strength and conditioning coaching qualification.
