Postgraduate Certificate in Therapeutic Management in Sports Injuries

Therapeutic management of sports injuries is a comprehensive approach used to evaluate, treat and prevent sports-related injuries. The primary goal of therapeutic sports injury management is to help the patient recover from their injury and return to their pre-injury level of activity.

Therapeutic management of sports injuries includes a variety of treatments, which may include physical therapy, rehabilitation, medications, medical procedures and, in some cases, surgery. Specific treatment options will depend on the type and severity of the injury.

Early evaluation and identification of an injury is essential for successful therapeutic management. Early treatment and medical care can prevent future complications and promote a faster recovery. Therapeutic management of sports injuries may also include lifestyle changes, such as rest, icing to reduce inflammation, and practicing rehabilitative exercises.

Physical therapy and rehabilitation are major components of therapeutic management of sports injuries. Physical therapists help the patient regain strength, flexibility and range of motion through specific exercises and manual therapies. The rehabilitation program will be specifically designed based on the nature and severity of the injury.

In some cases, especially in severe or chronic injuries, medication may be part of the treatment. Medications may be used to reduce pain and inflammation, improve the stage of recovery and create a healing environment suitable for the injury.

In more severe situations, medical procedures and surgery may be necessary. Medical procedures may include corticosteroids or more complex injections for healing of the injury. Surgery is considered a definitive option when other options are not effective.

Therapeutic management of sports injuries is a comprehensive approach that seeks to prevent, evaluate and treat sports-related injuries. This treatment may include physical therapy, rehabilitation, medications, medical procedures and in some cases, surgery. The goal is to promote optimal recovery and allow the patient to return to his or her previous level of activity prior to the injury.
