Chris, good luck with finding subjects.
 
I have a small question about your exclusion criteria:
Why the allergy to plasters? Is that because of using plasters to attach electrodes?
 
Just curious as one who is allegic to plasters but fine with micropore. *s*

I am working out of the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, Stanmore in Middlesex.
 
Thanks for the advice, I have mailed all the physio schools and universities nearby. I have obtained all the gyms, clubs ect addresses around the area and will be starting on those next week. I have tried all the local businesses, hospital news letters with little luck.
 
Thanks for the responses
 
Chris

Hi there Chris,

It would be helpful to know where in this fine land of ours you are?

You could try contacting Universitys (student physios are always game to be models!!) sports clubs (you could work out a deal covering a few matches in exchange for some of there time, as long as that does not affect your ethical approval).

Obviously given an exclusion criteria of no history of mental illness avoid rugby teams, I know a lot of rugby players and trust me they are all mad!!! (joke)

Cheers,

John
