Megan Williams – Director & Senior Therapist

Megan qualified from the University of Hertfordshire with a first class honours degree in Sports Therapy. She went on to complete an MSc by Research; the work she produced was of such a high standard that the qualification was upgraded to a Master of Philosophy when examined. Her research involved the investigation of exercise rehabilitation and the biomechanics surrounding lower limb injuries, encompassing ligament sprains, muscular imbalances and post-surgical intervention. Megan is in the process of publishing her research findings and they have been presented at conferences around the UK.

Experience

Over the past 10 years, Megan has been involved in private practice as well as working with an array of athletes, from those competing at a World Class level in disciplines such as cycling and combat sports, to those who enjoy exercise for recreational purposes. Megan currently oversees all of the sports injury management with the students at The Leys, Cambridge. In 2017, Megan was privileged to be awarded a scholarship which enabled her to work alongside Sports Medicine professionals and Orthopaedic Surgeons in the USA. She gained a fantastic insight into their collegiate sport system. Previously, Megan has also spent time at the National Athletics Championships, a London dance injury clinic, the London Marathon and a Volleyball England tournament. Spending a season with Hemel Storm Basketball Team allowed Megan to work with ex-GB coaches and players, providing injury diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation at training sessions and matches.

Lecturing

In addition to all of this, Megan is a Lecturer in Sports Therapy at the University of Hertfordshire, following four years of teaching Sport and Exercise Science students at the University of Bedfordshire.
