Recovery and training with sports physiotherapy

Most complaints for which people visit a sports physiotherapist involve injuries to the knee, ankle, and shoulder. Sports physiotherapy not only focuses on the recovery of the affected joints but can also aim to train the parts of the body that are still load-bearing.

The sports physiotherapist often works in a specially equipped practice or in a sports medicine department of a hospital, where sports physiotherapy can easily apply. Increasingly, they are also employed by sports clubs and sports federations. In addition, they work closely and intensively with other healthcare professionals, such as sports physicians, surgeons, and sports massage therapists, as well as with those responsible for occupational health policies in companies.
