KALAMAZOO—Western Michigan University students and faculty and staff members are invited to ask personnel from the WMU Sports Medicine Clinic in the Sindecuse Health Center about injury treatment options and rehabilitation during drop-in events this spring.

The sessions will be offered from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on three upcoming Wednesdays at three different campus locations. The event dates and locations are:

  • Feb. 19, Engineering and Applied Sciences Building lobby
  • March 19, Student Recreation Center lobby
  • March 26, Health and Human Services Building student commons

Clinic staff will be on hand to answer questions with no appointment needed. Visitors are invited to ask about their training aches and pains, or to learn how a sports medicine approach to treatment can help someone with an injury return to activity as soon as possible.
