Description

The Routledge Handbook of Sports and Exercise Therapy is a methodically detailed, authoritative, contemporaneous and practical reference source for all those involved in sports and exercise therapy, whether students, established practitioners, educators or researchers.

This comprehensive handbook cohesively presents foundational subjects and introduces principles and applications to support the development and practice of sports and exercise therapists. These are presented alongside new essential and evolving topic areas.

Such a blend of fundamental underpinning and applied and experiential practical guidance gives this handbook a real sense of relevancy, and a contribution which can help to consolidate the positioning of sports and exercise therapists as key practitioners in an advancing landscape of health, exercise, sport, research and education.

The handbook has been produced to create a seamless reference source for readers, but each of its chapters are also designed to be stand-alone presentations in their own right.

The following areas are covered:Learning and teachingEvidence-based practiceAnatomy and physiologyPathology of injuriesHealth and safetyClinical assessmentTherapeutic modalitiesInjury rehabilitationSports and exercise as medicineSports and exercise nutritionSports and exercise psychologyProfessionalism and ethicsStructural and cultural competencySideline sports injury managementManagement of regional injury conditionsCase studies in sports and exercise therapyEmployability and career developmentThe handbook is comprehensively referenced and multi-authored.

Its design incorporates numerous photographs, figures, tables and detailed sample document templates.

It can be considered as an essential and topical resource for anyone involved in sports and exercise therapy, whether in their first year as an undergraduate or already working in professional practice.
