What is a Certified Athletic Therapist?
Certified Athletic Therapists are highly skilled health care practitioners that provide immediate treatment to musculoskeletal injures and apply rehabilitation techniques to ensure a rapid return to work and play. Certified Athletic Therapists employ a sports medicine model of rehabilitation to offer accelerated rehabilitation to physical injuries incurred from sports, recreation, daily activities or occupation. The Certified Athletic Therapist must present current malpractice insurance and annual documentation demonstrating continued professional development to maintain a status of “good standing” with the Canadian Athletic Therapists Association.
