FAQs β Athletic Therapy Clinics in Canada
What is an Athletic Therapist and what do they treat?
Athletic Therapists (ATs) are regulated health professionals who specialize in musculoskeletal injury prevention, assessment, and rehabilitation. They treat sports injuries, sprains, strains, concussions, and overuse injuries in active populations. Certification is granted by the Canadian Athletic Therapists Association (CATA).
How is athletic therapy different from physiotherapy?
Both professions treat musculoskeletal injuries, but athletic therapists have a specific focus on physically active individuals and return-to-sport rehabilitation. Physiotherapists treat a broader patient population including neurological and cardiorespiratory conditions. Many sports clinics employ both professions.
Is athletic therapy covered by extended health insurance?
Coverage for athletic therapy varies by province and insurance plan. Many extended health benefit plans include athletic therapy, particularly those designed for active individuals or employer plans in industries with high physical demands. Check your benefit booklet for specifics.
What taping techniques do athletic therapists use?
Athletic therapists are trained in both rigid athletic taping (for joint immobilization and acute injury management) and kinesiology tape application (for dynamic support and rehabilitation). Taping is a core competency of athletic therapy practice.
Can an athletic therapist work with my child's sports injuries?
Yes. Athletic therapists are experienced working with youth athletes and understand the unique considerations of growing bodies. They can help manage growth-related conditions like Osgood-Schlatter disease, Sever's disease, and acute sports injuries in children and adolescents.
What should I expect at my first athletic therapy appointment?
Your first appointment will include a detailed injury history, physical assessment of the affected area, and identification of contributing factors. Your athletic therapist will explain their findings, develop a treatment plan, and often begin treatment during the first visit.
