Advanced Course in Sports Rehabilitation

The Academia Clínicas Espregueira, a project supported by the Clínica Espregueira | FIFA Medical Centre of Excellence, invites to the Advanced Course in Sports Rehabilitation.

Clinical evaluation, diagnosis, the effective treatment of injuries and improvement of sports performance are crucial for athlete performance and sportive success. In the European Union the annual direct costs of sports injuries exceed 2 billion euros. The translation of these numbers implies loss of income and the discontinuation of sports careers, plus negligence at times and a negative impact on the well-being and health of athletes, building up a premise for failure. There is an urgent need to promote and intensify equitable access to good practices and the latest evidence in medicine and sports rehabilitation. We must prioritize and equip people with qualifications in order to reduce the incidence, complications and recurrence of injuries. There is a need to learn to diagnose accurately in order to treat effectively, either surgically or conservatively. The processes of rehabilitation and sports recovery, based on criteria that can be evaluated and measured, are factors of success.

Orthopedics, Traumatology and Sports Medicine, as well as Sports Physiotherapy and Sports Science, have been expanding and optimizing services through evidence-based practices and supported by structured and customized processes for physical, athletic and other individualities pertaining to the athletes’ dimensions. It is essential to respond to the needs of today’s society, with a commitment to practice physical exercise and sports. It is paramount to learn how to regularly monitor the state of health, optimize performance and take care of athletes, of all ages and at all levels.

All participants in this course are invited to learn in a critical and grounded way, crucial dimensions about increasing physical robustness, clinical assessment, diagnosis and treatment algorithm, rehabilitation and performance improvement in the context of the main – more frequent and/or more serious – sports injuries. These are a problem that all sports agents must address. Health and Sports Science professionals who have prepared for this challenge will make a decisive contribution to maintaining and recovering health, and to the athlete's premium performance!

Welcome to Academia Clínicas Espregueira!
