    Sports medicine

    Sports medicine specializes in preventing, diagnosing and treating injuries


    rints or muscles caused by engaging in such physical activities.
    Sports medicine encompasses the study of exercise science. Exercise science
    involves understanding the principals of physiology, anatomy and psychology and
    how they work together in physical activity and movement. Sports activity takes
    normal movement to the ultimate extreme, and understanding how far the body can
    safely extend itself is vital to success on and off the playing field.
    A sports medicine specialist is an individual with specialized education and
    training who focuses on the medical and therapeutic aspects of sports participation
    and physical activity. The title of sports medicine specialist does not necessarily
    mean that the specialist is a physician. There are bachelors, masters, and certificate
    programs in sports medicine.
    Sports medicine physicians have specialized training in the field of medicine
    that deals with sport or exercise-related injuries. Their primary focus is on the
    diagnosis, treatment and prevention of injuries that occur during sports and other
    physical activities.
    A sports medicine physician receives special training during a fellowship
    program in sports medicine after finishing a residency program in another
    specialty, such as primary care or orthopedic surgery. There are currently no
    widespread residency programs in sports medicine.
    The goal of sports medicine professionals is to help individuals achieve
    optimal health and performance goals. Those pursuing degrees in sport medicine or
    sports science, often work in clinical, academic or service employment. Professions
    include trainers, coaches, researchers, nutritionists, sports psychologists, and many
    others.
