Why This Matters for PT Clinicians
Your Patients Are More Than Their Injury
Physical therapists are often the most consistent clinical presence in an athlete's recovery. That puts you in a unique position to recognize what the imaging doesn't show.
Return-to-Sport Mental Readiness
63% of physically cleared athletes report significant fear of re-injury. This course gives you a validated 4-domain framework to assess and address it before clearance.
Post-Surgical Depression
PHQ-9 scores above 10 predict worse post-op outcomes. You'll learn when to screen, how to interpret results, and when to escalate.
REDs Recognition
The 2023 IOC Consensus expanded Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport beyond female athletes. Fewer than 35% of clinicians identify it in male patients.
Kinesiophobia and Re-Injury Fear
The TSK-11 is a direct tool for your practice. A score of 37 or higher signals high fear of re-injury, which is a modifiable barrier to full recovery.
“The body and the mind are not separate systems. Every orthopedic injury has a psychological dimension. Every psychological struggle has a physical expression.”Matthew Wichman, MD — Mind Over Motion
