Rehabilitation is, by definition, the restoration of optimal form
and function for an athlete. In this edition in the
Encyclopedia series, the editor and contributors advocate
that rehabilitation should begin as soon as possible after the
injurty occurs, alongside therapeutic measures such as
anti-inflammatories and other pain killing agents. This might also
begin before, or immediately after, surgery.
The rehabilitative process is therefore managed by a
multi-disciplinary team, including physicians, physiotherapists,
psychologists, nutritionists, and athletic trainers, amongst
others.
This book considers the three phases of rehabilitation: pain
relief, protection of the affected area and limitation of tissue
damage; limitation of impairment and recovery of flexibility,
strength, endurance, balance and co-ordination; and finally the
start of conditioning to return to training and competition.
