Sports Rehabilitation
Sports rehabilitation is a special complex of therapeutic and physical activities, the main task of which is the maximal restoration of lost functions by a person.
Sports rehabilitation is primarily aimed at resuming sports activities for people involved in professional and amateur sports after injuries and illnesses, as well as returning them to a full life. Athletes, unlike ordinary people, must not only eliminate certain health problems, but also be fully prepared for strong physical exercise in the future.
As a rule, sports rehabilitation involves treatment after such problems in athletes:
– head injuries (concussions, fractures, internal hematomas);
– injuries of the spine, upper and lower extremities, muscles;
– arthrosis, arthritis, radiculitis and neuralgia;
– Injuries to the muscles of the abdomen and groin.
Additionally, each sport has its own “professional” chronic and acute diseases. For example, football players quite often experience arthritis, knee injuries, back pain, craniocerebral injuries, whereas in tennis players the most common injuries are in the elbow and shoulder joints. Such health problems in athletes are subject to immediate certified rehabilitation.
Reasons for sports rehabilitation
