What there is to say about me...

My Athletic Background

I have been active in a variety of sports:

-tennis (active player in Germany as well as

  coaching education).

-volleyball (active player and coach “Oberliga”

 and also coaching education)

-billiard

-table tennis

-badminton…

Therapeutic Influences

After being affected by a major knee trauma*, the world of physiotherapy and rehabilitation opened to me: to overcome my first diagnosis of being “sports disabled”, the only choice I had left was to try all possible therapies, workouts and rehabilitation methods, as well as to engage in hard and consequent training.

Now, almost 10 years later, I actively practice all kinds of sports with next to no problems, apart from having a slightly reduced range of motion.

*“unhappy triad” (rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament, medial collateral ligament, and the interior meniscus) plus rupture of the lateral collateral ligament, the lateral ligament and a grade III injury of the cartilage.
