Sport facilities

All students studying a sports degree benefit from our excellent newly-refurbished facilities. There are six purpose built sports laboratories including a therapy room with an adjacent Sports Injuries Clinic. This is used by sports therapy students for clinical practice.

The labs provide you with an extensive range of state of the art sport, exercise and therapy equipment, to help you get most out your practical sessions. They include:

ergonometers, which measure the amount of work done by a muscle or muscle groups
dynamometers, to measure strength of joints
anthropometric equipment to measure the size, weight and proportions of the human body.
equipment for respiratory analysis, blood analysis and cardio-vascular analysis.

Our specialist equipment for sports therapy students includes:

hydraulic 3-section couches
thermo later heat-pack
electrotherapy equipment such as ultrasound, interferential and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (T.E.N.S.).
