Sports and Exercise Physiotherapists are involved in the prevention and
management of injuries resulting from sport and exercise participation at all
ages and at all levels of ability. These specialised physiotherapists provide
evidence-based advice on safe participation in sport and exercise. Furthermore,
they promote an active lifestyle to aid individuals in improving and maintaining
their quality of life. Sports and Exercise Physiotherapists also play a huge
role in helping athletes of all ages and all levels of ability to enhance their
performance.[1] Grant et al.[2] summarises the role of the sports
physiotherapist as follows: "The essential role of the sports physiotherapist is
to provide treatment and rehabilitation of injuries and also to provide support
for performance through injury prevention, maintenance and recovery
interventions."
