Injury Management
Being active and sporty has many health benefits, however with sportiness comes the risk of injury. There are many ways to help prevent the risk of injury, but accidents do happen. That’s why it’s a great idea to be aware of how you can help yourself and others in the event of injury.
There are three key components to effective injury management:
- Injury prevention
- Injury identification and treatment
- Injury rehabilitation
It’s vital that appropriate injury rehabilitation takes place under the care of qualified professionals before returning to sport. Without this, the risk of making the original injury worse is greatly increased.
