In Ep.221 of the Sports Therapy Association Podcast, host Matt Phillips is joined by a multidisciplinary panel of practitioners who attended Therapy Expo 2024, which took place in November 2024 at the Birmingham NEC in the UK.

The panel, made up of NatalIe Heng (sports massage therapist), Shannon Byrne (sports therapist), Danielle Peters (sports therapist) Steve Yeoman (sports therapist), Chareeya Kaewsawang (physiotherapist), Emily Sweet (physiotherapist) and Nicki Shearman (podiatrist), together dive into a vibrant discussion about their experiences at Therapy Expo, covering a wide range of topics from the impact of specific talks on their practice, the pros and cons of attending such events, to cost concerns and accommodation tips.

Through this engaging conversation, they explore the expo’s focus on multidisciplinary approaches in sports therapy, the importance of networking, and the potential benefits or obstacles of attending major conferences like Therapy Expo.
