What you will learn:

Gain a better understanding of the biomechanics of sports and exercise so that you can better perceive the forces that act on or are exerted by the body. In combination with our hands-on approach, you will develop the tools and knowledge necessary to create treatment plans that provide support for athletes before, during and after their physical activities.

• Discover how you can enhance their performance and prevent injuries by improving their flexibility and range of motion.
• Support their recovery after training or competition by reducing muscle soreness, and improving blood and lymphatic circulation to promote oxygen and nutrient delivery necessary for muscle repair.
• Incorporate techniques that will relieve stress and strengthen their mental focus.

The body loading and repetitive movements of certain sports can lead to injuries.

• Learn to perform injury assessments and postural analyses.
• Interpret your findings to best identify the potential risks of injury for athletes.

Taping can promote recovery and reduce pain after an injury by providing stability and minimizing strain.

• Learn how to safely restrict the movement of injured joints and decrease swelling by compressing soft tissue.
