Complementary Therapies in Sports Medicine Training - Certified Online Course

The Complementary Therapies in Sports Medicine Training program examines the role of both alternative, as well as evidence-informed therapies, in optimizing recovery after training, as well as rehabilitation. This program is designed especially for physiotherapists, trainers, and bodywork practitioners. It also includes myofascial release, dry needling (awareness), relaxation science and manual therapy.


The participants learn how they can facilitate better tissue recovery, improve circulation, and prolong durability of performance by blending a conventional physiotherapy approach with holistic modalities. The modules include recovery nutrition, stress modulation, and soft tissue strategies.


The program will teach those practitioners who do not have experience in thinking about, or using alternative or holistic methods, how they can introduce complementary care with physiotherapeutic methods. Practitioners will earn a Certificate in Complementary Sports Medicine Therapies at completion, which will provide acknowledgement of learning and the opportunity to look at sports medicine and care of injuries in an integrated or blended way.
