Tests and Measures to Return the Athlete to Sport

Course Description

In various settings of allied healthcare- athletic training, physical therapy, and others- we run into limitations that help objectify an athlete’s capacity to return to sport or more vigorous work. It can also be difficult to have tests and measures compiled in a format that we can implement in various clinical rehab settings.

This course is designed to give the clinician comprehensive and practical testing methods and measurement tools to help validate an athlete’s actual ability to return to sport.
