Information sources

The sports injury articles are written first hand by qualified sports medicine professionals and therapists, and are original articles based on years of personal experience, with reference to respected sports medicine texts (see bibliography) and research papers. Our philosophy is to encompass a wide range of medical approaches and not to favour any particular type of background or therapy.

Funding

Advertising is a source of revenue. We use Google Adsense and Amazon associate advertising along with UPMedical.co.uk in the UK. Our information and editorial content are NOT influenced at all by funding sources and we make no specific claims about the efficacy of any product. If a particular type of product (for example a cold therapy/ice pack) is recommended then this is based on the opinion and experience of the professional therapist, scientific research or generally accepted medical practice, and not for direct financial gain.

Advertising policy

We host banner adverts only from Google and Amazon. They are distinguished with the word “ADVERTISEMENT” above the advert and are surrounded by a border. We do not have direct control over the content of Google Adsense advertising, however, we have restricted advert categories to exclude all gambling, financial, political, sensitive, and non-relevant advertising areas as far as possible.
