Description
At a time when participation in sport is increasing, it is inevitable that the incidence of injury will also increase, resulting in health care professionals and their resources being stretched to their limits by individuals who expect their doctors to have more and more training in sports medicine. Prevention is always better than treatment and it is for this reason that this book has been compiled. The book supplies readers with the necessary knowledge to decrease significantly their chances of inflicting injury on themselves. Diagrams depict post-injury exercises. Written by a team of doctors, physiotherapists and a nutritionist, this guide offers useful advice on self-help and rehabilitation in the event of sports-related injury.
