    Re: Physiotherapy or Sports medicine

    Sports Med is a branch of medicine as other branches of medicine. It differs from other branches of medicine as professional players are very expensive and cannot be out of the game for more than a specific period of time. This makes sports medicine a challenging job.
    Normally sports physiotherapy is a specialization after graduation. A sports physio should be aware of pitch-side assistance, emergency case handling, rehabilitation, taping techniques, mobilization, stretching etc.
