combining best practice in sports medicine and physical therapy
with training and conditioning techniques based on cutting edge

how this integrated model should work in practice across the full
spectrum of athlete care, including the prevention of sports
injury, assessment and treatment of injury, and the design and
implementation of effective rehabilitation programmes.The book
introduces evidence-based best practice in all the core functional
and professional areas of sports injury management, including:
Building a performance team Pre-participation screenings Developing
core stability, motor control and flexibility Training models
Pre-season and in-season programmes Assessment of training loads
and recovery The mechanics of sports injury Concussion management
Pain Overtraining Designing rehabilitation programmes Psychology,
nutrition and environmental stress Working with young athletes,
female athletes, masters athletes, and athletes with disabilities
Every chapter includes real case studies and data, as well as
effective protocols, procedures and specimen programmes designed
for high performance, with examples drawn from a wide range of
individual and team sports. No other book integrates sports
medicine and sport science as closely, and therefore Sports Injury
Prevention and Rehabilitation is essential reading for any course
in sports injury, sports therapy or sports medicine, and for any
clinician, physical therapist or sport scientist working in high
performance sport.
