physioclinic.net are the best around. They treat all the pro mtbers and mxers etc. They are high speed trauma specialists, so anything that involves hitting the ground hard.

I went after a collar bone break, it was in 4 pieces. Had treatment 6 days after injury. Left with more movement and less pain. Could drive again straight away. I was back on the bike on road at 3 weeks and pain free mtb at 5 weeks.

I had a similar injury a couple of years ago before (3 bits) and recovery with treatment was notably better. I thought it would all be hocus pocus witchcraft but am convinced it works.

Yep, bit tough on them, first they broke their bones, then fired lasers at them and then killed them!
