Soccer Specialization

The physical therapists who work in the context of physical therapy in sport develop a professional practice that is crucial for the prevention, physical recovery, rehabilitation and recovery of athletes. This requires the expansion and the increase of advanced and specific competences according to the intervention area and sport modality.

Soccer has been giving great visibility to the work of physical therapists, supporting it, in the context of multiprofessional teams, with the parameterization of health, financial and sporting results. The results point to a positive impact in all three dimensions. The availability of athletes to train and play defines in part, the direction of the results, i.e., statistically there are correlations between greater availability (fewer injuries, shorter periods of downtime) and financial and sporting results. Thus, in light of the concept of dominance applied to injury prevention programs, we can say that the intervention of the physical therapist, naturally in the context of health teams, is dominant. This also means that the employment of physical therapists in soccer is sustainable and effective.

The practice of physiotherapy in sports, due to the plurality and particularities of the contexts, as is the case of physiotherapy in soccer, recommends and may come to demand a profile and status of specialist. Physiotherapists must acquire and, in individual, clinical and sports contexts, apply advanced and added competences to what is the technical-scientific referential of graduation. The main purpose of the course, designated as Sport Physiotherapy: Football Specialization, is to promote behaviors, learning of core knowledge and skills for physiotherapy in sport, particularly for soccer physiotherapy.

Based in part on the risk matrix and trauma profile of soccer, we have planned and structured a course that will contribute to and empower a specialized practice of physiotherapists. We have invited physiotherapists and other clinicians with credits in clinical practice at the highest level in sport and soccer, solid curricula, skills and means to lead the participants through the advocated learning objectives and outcomes.

The course in Sport Physical Therapy: Football Specialization is composed of two components: the first online and the second, face-to-face and optional. The core contents to be developed in the course are:

  • Injury Prevention in Soccer
  • Rehabilitation of muscle injuries
  • Conservative, post-surgical treatment and sports resumption after ACL rupture
  • Treatment of meniscal lesions: post-meniscectomy rehabilitation Vs meniscal repair
  • Treatment of pubalgic syndrome: Surgery Vs conservative treatment
  • Therapeutic management of tendinopathies
  • Mechanisms of ankle sprain
  • Active and passive recovery strategies
  • Physical evaluation of the lower limb
  • Functional bandages
  • Evaluation of hip adductor and heel strength
  • Mobility and motor control training

The course in Sports Physiotherapy: Football Specialty is intended for physiotherapists registered in the Order of Physiotherapists and final year students of the degree in physiotherapy. The contribution and purpose is to expand and consolidate the qualifications of physical therapists who work or will work in soccer, for a safe and effective professional practice, in line with the best that is done in the world.

OBJECTIVES

  Describe the evidence and best practices of injury prevention in soccer
  Identify and classify, discuss decision trees and describe rehabilitation programs for muscle injuries

  Discuss and defend assumptions of time, structure and function for sports resumption after ACL rupture
  Differentiate and explain rehabilitation programs adjusted to meniscectomies and meniscal repairs
  Discuss different etiologic entities, indications and treatment options of pubalgic syndrome
  Describe and justify, based on clinical guidelines, flowcharts for the therapeutic management of tendinopathies
  Describe and justify conservative treatment options for ruptures of the ankle external ligament complex
  Describe and justify the implementation of active and/or passive recovery strategies
  Identify and apply lower limb physical assessment tests and procedures
  Select and apply materials and techniques for functional bandages adjusted to the clinical context
  Describe and perform hip adductor and heel strength measurements
  Describe and perform mobility and motor control exercises focusing on the trunk, lumbar-pelvic region and lower limbs
Description

Why am I going to be better with this course?

It will be better because the course of Sports Physiotherapy: Football Specialization enables you to to develop a specialist profile embodied in the expansion and addition of necessary of necessary and extraordinary competencies to the technical-scientific referential of graduating physiotherapists. The critical selection of content, as well as a multidisciplinary faculty, with broad and solid competencies will enable you to know and to do in a coherent, current and in line with the best and in line with the best that is done in the world in the area of physiotherapy in sports and particularly in soccer intervention.
