What is Sports Therapy?


Sports Therapy is a type of physical therapy that is specifically concerned with the prevention of injury and the rehabilitation of the patient back to optimum levels of functional, occupational and sports specific fitness, regardless of age and ability.

It utilises the principles of sport and exercise sciences, incorporating physiological and pathological processes to prepare the participant for training, competition and where applicable, work.



A Sports Therapist is Certified to: 


  • Provide first aid and attend to injuries in a recreational, training and competitive environment. 

  • Assess and, where appropriate, refer on for specialist advice and intervention. 

  • Provide sports massage pre and post activity. 

  • Implement appropriate rehabilitation programmes. 

  • Utilise sports and exercise principles to optimise preparation and injury prevention programmes.

Sports Therapy & Professional Regulation:

In May 2006  the Health Professions Council (HPC) formerly agreed to recommend to the Secretary of State that, in the interests of public protection, Sports Therapists should be regulated.

This means that the title of ‘Sports Therapist’ will become one which is protected by law and only those who have undertaken and passed a recognised and approved course of study and abide by the rules and regulations set by the HPC may use this title. 


First and foremost, this is in the interests of protecting the public and to reassure those seeking treatment and advice for sports and occupational related injuries that they will receive an appropriate and high standard of care.
