Athletic Therapy

What is athletic therapy?

Certified athletic therapists are best known for their quick-thinking, on-field emergency care of elite and professional athletes. The first to respond when someone gets hurt, they are experts at injury assessment and rehabilitation. It’s that same mix of on-site care and active rehabilitation skills that makes athletic therapists so effective in treating the musculoskeletal (muscles, bones, and joints) injuries of all Canadians, whether on the field or in the clinic.

Athletic therapy services for Briercrest athletes

Briercrest Athletics provides the following athletic therapy services through our partnership with Highland Rehabilitation Center:

  • Home game coverage, including pre-game taping and treatments, emergency care, and first aid

Being part of the Briercrest volleyball team was where I built some of the closest relationships. From training hard and achieving success to working through tough losses, you develop friendships that couldn't be made anywhere else.
