Athletic Therapy

Sport-Focused Rehabilitation for Active Individuals

Nelson BC Athletic Therapy

Athletic therapists specialize in the prevention, assessment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries, with a particular focus on the physical demands of sport and active living. Whether you are a competitive athlete or an active individual, our athletic therapists help you recover from injury and return to the activities you love.

What Athletic Therapy Treats

Athletic therapy is effective for acute and chronic musculoskeletal injuries, sport-related injuries at all levels, post-surgical rehabilitation, movement dysfunction, and return-to-sport and return-to-activity programming.

Our Approach

Athletic therapy emphasizes a whole-body approach that encourages the client to be an active participant in their rehabilitation. Through diligent orthopaedic assessment, treatment plans are designed to address the root cause of injury and support a safe, confident return to activity.

Treatment may include manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, sport-specific conditioning, taping and bracing, and movement retraining. Our athletic therapists work collaboratively within the KHS team to ensure your care is coordinated across disciplines.
