Physiotherapy Consultant Neal Reynolds, tells us how to get into sports physiotherapy. For more information on Physiotherapists visit: www.sportsinju...
Thanks for this, great help! Currently still at college and applying to study Physiotherapy at University. Was offered a place on the Sports Rehab course but turned it down as I would rather get my Physio degree first and then specialise in a specific area when I'm sure what I want to do. Working one day a week in a physio clinic voluntary and absolutely love it. Already had the great opportunity to treat a few goalkeepers and felt right at home doing this.
Hi. It's a very personal thing and it doesn't bother some people, but others find it hard to deal with. But it is right that you tend to get used to things like that and become almost 'immune' to it. But if you do go for the Physio course, you don't have to specialise in sports injuries - after your course and 2 year rotations in the NHS you could go down many routes, such as Respiratory physio, neurological, geriatric etc which involve less traumatic injury
Hi, I'm in high school and I'm thinking about becoming a sports physio. I would like to know if you had in any particular recommendations for universities or colleges where I could study physiotherapy. Thanks for the great video !
Hi Jessica. I'm afraid I don't know the answer to that question as we are UK based so we only know how it all works over here really. I would try contacting the college you are planning on going to, or even people already in your intended profession to get their opinions. Sorry not to be more helpful
hello. I'm a physical therapist in the Philippines. Just passed my board exam last February 2016. Now, I'm starting my training as a physical therapist in a sports rehabilitation center. But, I'm not physically fit like some other physiotherapists and i'm a bit insecure. do you think I made the right decision?
hi there, i have no experience in sports, but I want to become a physiotherapist. what do you think is the best approach to gain experience? Thank you for the knowledge. It is very helpful as I strive to become a physiotherapist myself
whether this is a big deal or not if i was considering this profession. Some people have said that i will grow out of it as i get older and learn more about these injuries...but i'm not 100% sure. your opinion will be greatly appreciated :)
After finish your uni degree in the uk you can work in the hospital and they will change every 6 motnhs the ward you work at. For example 6 moths at maternity ward another 6 months on the amputee ward. So after few years you will have worked in many different areas within the hospital. Makes it easier for you to choose in what area you would like to specialise.
Hello! I live in the states and also want to become a sports physical therapist, I think here we do things a little different by going to college and then going on to Grad school to get our doctorates in PT, I'm thinking about double majoring in athletic training & exercise science to fill out all the pre reqs for PT school and wanted to know if getting bachelors in both those professions will help me out when looking for sport PT jobs?
I've just been accepted into physio for University but not 100% sure if it is the right career for me. I'm quite passionate about sport and also feel that helping people with physical/mobility issues will give me great satisfaction. However, i am very worried that learning about and dealing with horrific sports injuries such as achilles tendon ruptures and knee dislocations on a regular basis will turn me off particpating in sport in the future. can anyone please give me some advice as to...
Where are you studying? As far as I know Physiotherapy degrees are an international qualification
I'm going to university next year and this has given me the motivation to pursue physiotherapy, thank you :)

Hi
I don't think that's really a problem! It's more getting the qualifications and then the experience, as opposed to where you live!
