Roy Minter Sports Therapist

testimonials

"I have received treatment from Roy for various sport injury problems during the previous 12 months.
In April of this year I ran my first Marathon, however, I suffered various injuries particularly when I began to increase my mileage. Roy successfully treated an old groin strain which resurfaced in January. In addition I suffered lower abdominal pain which was becoming a constant problem when I ran. Although this was vey painful to treat I ran the London Marathon without feeling any discomfort at all!" .......more

Roy solves my various aches and pains!

As an active, retired sixty-something with a legacy of injuries from 25 years rugby and one serious car accident (no anterior cruciate ligament in my RH knee plus chronic back, calf and hamstring issues), I tend to get recurrent muscle problems from walking, gardening and other more strenuous exercise.

As a fly-fisherman, right shoulder pain can be a problem as well but, when it flares up Roy sorts it out.............more

Roy Minter M.I.C.H.T. studied anatomy and physiology, Swedish massage and sports massage at Hereford College of Technology and is a current member of the Federation of Holistic Sports Therapists. He has also attended an advanced massage course on trigger point therapy.
Roy became interested in sports massage as a result of sustaining a serious knee injury in 1995. During the long rehabilitation it became apparent that a career helping other sports people and athletes fulfil their potential and recover from injury was the right path for him.

Roy loves the work he does and the pleasure seeing people receive relief from their pain and returning to normality. He feels strongly that there are a lot of people living with pain unnecessarily. Roy continues to find that the deep tissue treatments are of benefit to both elite athletes and the public at large, treating a wide range of injuries from back/shoulder problems to foot problems.

'Hay Hotfooters Running Club have made Roy our official sports therapist as so many of us have had some help from him one time or another.

Not all aches and pains are running related but Roy has managed to get us all back up and treading the trails around Hay'. Thanks Roy
