KPI’s Philosophy & Approach to Sports Therapy
Based on our experiences in elite sport, KPI adopt a holistic approach to sports therapy & injury rehabilitation which necessitates a collaborative team-based approach and focuses on the body as a whole system rather than just the athlete’s symptoms. This approach involves all members of the multi-disciplinary team within KPI that have a varied skill set of medical, sports science and strength & conditioning which allows us to deliver an optimum service for the athlete.
Within our sports therapy and rehabilitation service, we believe it is necessary to adopt a systematic approach to both gym and pitch-based reconditioning. This approach has clear evidence based key performance indicators that must be achieved to gradually pass through each phase before returning to their given sport. Additionally, a key part of our process is linking our clinical assessments and functional movement screening as well taking into consideration the athlete’s injury history. Therefore, allows us to address underlying biomechanical deficiencies which maybe a reason as to why the athletes injury occurred. This then forms part of the athletes reconditioning program to prepare the athlete for the demands of their given sport whilst simultaneously aiming to reduce re-injury risk by improving movement quality and athletic performance. A key component of our process is to use objective testing which guides us through this process and is individual to each athlete depending on their injury, sport, position, and injury history.
