Athletic Therapy

What is Athletic Therapy

Athletic Therapists are health care professionals who have significant training in dealing with musculoskeletal (muscles, bones, and joints) injuries. Using advanced assessment techniques, an athletic therapist is able to determine what you have injured and how best to approach the rehabilitation of your injury.

Athletic therapists work with all sorts of people. You don’t have to be an athlete to see an Athletic Therapist, nor do you have to have been injured during physical activity. Any injury, whether the cause is work-related, sport-based, or anything in between, could benefit from professional assessment and rehabilitation techniques of an Athletic Therapist.
