Current and Former Partners
I collaborate with multiple universities and sports physiotherapy institutions, delivering guest lectures nationally and internationally. My lectures focus on anatomy, injury rehabilitation, and sports performance enhancement.
My professional experience includes work with German Bundesliga clubs, specialized private clinics, and institutes focused on performance diagnostics and sports medicine. Additionally, I have served as an external consultant for the German elite sports insurance provider (VBG), contributing to the development of guidelines and criteria for decision-making and return-to-sport protocols following lateral ankle sprains.
Former Cooperations and Project Supervisions
I have supervised several orthopedic and neuroscience studies in elite sports, aimed at optimizing athlete health and recovery strategies by examining internal (i.e. the Autonomic Nervous System) and external biomechanical loads. Alongside my clinical work in professional football, I managed a comprehensive multi-club PhD research project involving more than 13 German Bundesliga teams, designed to assess the effectiveness of a newly developed rehabilitation algorithm for lateral ankle sprains in elite football players.

- Electrodermal activity during sleep – potential as a parameter for load management in elite football players (2016)
- Pilot implementation of return-to-competition (R-t-C) diagnostics following acute lateral ligament injury to the ankle joint (2018-2019)
- Evaluation of a new developed rehabilitation algorithm after lateral ankle sprains in professional football players – a multi-club study (2021-2025)
DOSB Sports Physiotherapist
Continuous professional development and ongoing training are essential to maintaining the highest professional standards. I hold the official Sports Physiotherapy License issued by the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB) since 2019.
