The Sports Therapy Association Podcast is recorded LIVE every Tuesday at 8pm (UK) on the Sports Therapy Association YouTube channel and Facebook Page, and then uploaded as a podcast. You do not have to be an STA member to attend the live recordings - it is a chance to network with fellow therapists and discuss topics that together help us all move forward as an industry. The goal of the podcast, hosted by Matt Phillips (creator of runchatlive.com), is to deliver to Soft Tissue Therapists of all levels (including massage therapists, sports therapists, physiotherapists, podiatrists, chiropractors, etc.) up to date information on how to be a modern, successful, effective health care practitioner, with a gold star reputation for being able to help people in pain and/or looking for performance gains. The Sports Therapy Association (STA) is a professional representation for Sports Therapists, Sports Injury Therapists and Soft Tissue Therapists. We have worked passionately to develop a truly independent and ethical association that is committed to raising standards across the industry and progressing opportunities for our valued members.

Welcome to the Sports Therapy Association Podcast!
Recorded live on Tuesdays at 8pm (UK time) on the Sports Therapy Association Facebook Page , host Matt Phillips (creator of Runchatlive) brings guests from the Sports Therapy industry to answer YOUR questions and discuss topics chosen by YOU.
The current Covid-19 pandemic has created a very real mental health emergency. For soft tissue therapists, there is now more than ever a need to be as prepared as possible to recognise & assist clients with symptoms potentially connected with mental ill health, as well as recognise when we ourselves are suffering and need support.
In Ep.35 of the Sports Therapy Association Podcast, our special guest is James Chapman of AllAboutTheMind.com, an instructor for MHFA (Mental Health First Aid) and Sports Massage Therapist. James discusses what as therapists we can do to help prepare ourselves for the ever increasing need to understand Mental Health issues, and how MHFA courses can help therapists develop practical skills to spot the triggers and signs of mental ill health, gain confidence to reassure and support a person in distress, and learn how to guide them to further support and recovery.
