Description

Written for student assistants to trainers and physiotherapists, this is a text on the basics of athletic training. It aims to give them an understanding of what they will observe. It covers basic anatomy, care of common injuries, first aid, injury prevention, rehabilitation techniques, reconditioning procedures, other health concerns, administrative procedures, and the route to becoming a certified athletic trainer. It also discusses different types of injures, care and rehabilitation for each area of the body and how and when to use specific forms of padding, taping and bandaging. Each chapter has summaries and review questions, reinforcement activities, lists of key terms, questions, and accounts of actual experiences.
