Referring to AT

[johnlev]

My family doctor referred me to an AT instead of a sports physio. Do you think it'll make a difference?

What is AT?

I have the same problem, no idea what an AT is..

It is Athletic therapy. It's very similar to physiotherapy, but they can't work in hospitals. I'm not sure if it's only here in Canada.

Athletic trainers are very similar to physical therapists, they specialize in the prevention, diagnosis, assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of muscle and bone injuries and illnesses. What problem are you suffering from?
