No sports therapist listed in Biggar yet.

A sports therapist treats and prevents musculoskeletal injuries using hands-on techniques like deep tissue massage, joint mobilisation and rehabilitation exercises.

You don't need to be an athlete to benefit - sports therapy helps anyone with muscle pain, joint stiffness or recovery from injury, whether it came from running a marathon or lifting a sofa.

Look for a therapist registered with the Society of Sports Therapists (SST) or a similar professional body to ensure they are properly qualified.

Biggar is a small but characterful town in the upper reaches of South Lanarkshire, boasting more museums per head of population than almost anywhere else in Scotland.

The town's wide main street - one of the broadest in Scotland - reflects its medieval origins. Biggar Puppet Theatre is among the attractions.

Tinto Hill rising to 707 metres to the west offers one of the most popular hill walks in the Lowlands.

South Lanarkshire is a large and varied council area stretching from the southern suburbs of Glasgow through the Clyde Valley to the hills of the Southern Uplands on the border with Dumfries and Galloway.

The north of the area is densely populated, taking in East Kilbride - Scotland's first and largest new town - along with Hamilton, the administrative centre and the communities of Rutherglen, Cambuslang, Blantyre and Bothwell clustered along the River Clyde.

The Clyde Valley running south from Hamilton through Lanark is one of Scotland's most beautiful river landscapes, famous for its orchards, gorge woodlands and the Falls of Clyde. New Lanark, the UNESCO World Heritage Site founded as a model industrial community in the 18th century, is one of Scotland's most important visitor attractions.

The upper reaches of the council area are rural and sparsely populated, with the market towns of Biggar and Lanark serving the surrounding farming communities. The landscape rises to open moorland and the northern fringes of the Southern Uplands, with Tinto Hill a prominent landmark visible from across the central belt.

Transport links are strong in the northern part of the area, with the M74, M77 and several railway lines connecting to Glasgow, while the upper valley relies on the A73, A72 and A70 trunk roads.
