Sale Sharks signs new wellbeing partner

Sale Sharks are delighted to announce Altius Healthcare as the club’s new official health and wellbeing partner. 

With six clinics based around Greater Manchester, Altius’s team of 20 staff, led by former Sharks’ physio Doug Jones (pictured right), delivers physiotherapy, massage, podiatry and wellness services to more than 1500 patients each month. 

The team provides a range of services to elite organisations including Honda UK and sporting teams including Manchester City and Red Bull Racing.  

They’ll now extend their services to Sharks’ staff and men’s, women’s and academy players, and support the club with its work in schools. 

As part of the partnership Altius will offer free lunchtime injury assessments and screening to pupils at secondary schools all over the North West. Altius will follow up in clinic with anyone who requires further treatment. 

And Altius will also work with the Sale Sharks Business Club, showcasing their services and providing massage chairs at networking events. 

Sharks’ commercial director Luisa d’Aprano (pictured left) said: “The health and wellbeing of our staff and players is vitally important to make sure we perform at our very best on and off the field. 

“Doug and the team at Altius are right at the top of their game and we’re excited to see what we can achieve as a team and as a club through this partnership. 

“We’re committed to working with and supporting northern business and making a difference in our community and Altius’s work with our partner schools will genuinely make a difference to the lives of young people.” 

Doug Jones said: “We are thrilled to be collaborating with our local Premiership Rugby team Sale Sharks this year.    

“Our mission is to offer the world class health care services that Sale Sharks enjoy to all our customers from elite athletes to corporate office workers, school children in the community and weekend warriors.”
