Nor Med Therapies is one of the few clinics fortunate enough to offer Certified Athletic Therapy (CAT).
Our Certified Athletic Therapist treats a wide range of sport-related injuries in all sports including track and field, hockey, rugby, football, basketball and volleyball. Certified Athletic Therapists understand the mechanics and physical requirements of sports, and return you to your game as quickly and safely as possible.
Specialized CAT therapists are relatively new and few in number. If you’re serious about recovering fully from a sports injury, see Nor Med Therapies as soon as possible for a treatment program tailored to your individual athletic goals.
CATs are certified to perform electrotherapy, thermal modalities and soft tissue mobilization, as well as supportive taping and strapping techniques. The goal is always a rapid, safe return to your sport, in communication with your coaching team and trainers.
Athletic therapy is an excellent choice for:
- Therapeutic exercise instruction
- Sports specific fitness assessments
- Cross training
- Strength and endurance training programs
- Proper postural guidance
- Exercise training to improve your cardiovascular and musculoskeletal condition
- Pain management
With their unique understanding of the physical, physiological and emotional requirements of returning to sport, CATs are ideally suited to work with a rehabilitation team that treats athletes of all levels – from the weekend warrior to the elite national level champion.
