[@steve00alt70]

Sports therapist is the best to work for yourself

[@cobaltblue5523]

Awesome great info

[@looreh_zu]

Thank you :) thats the info i was needing.

[@cobaltblue5523]

What are you up to now ? What schooling have you completed. I'm a massage therapist and want to expand my skills. I already work alot with athletes and treat various injuries. I've done research beyond massage and looked into physical therapy and incorporate it into my own training as well as my clients personal training.

Thank you for your video bro your the best

Thank you 🙏🏾

Thanks for your information! I'm interested in Sports therapy program in the UK and nearly coming there to study. What if Sports therapy job is not so much available in the UK, which country should Sports therapists move to for a job?

[@Physihop]

Great question, I’ve heard there’s jobs in Australia and Canada as well. However please do check yourself. Not many countries recognise sports therapy

[@SebastianRamirez-gt9us]

Do you recommend St George to do the master? I’m looking for uni 😅

[@divakaran126]

I'm a physiotherapist with bachelor degree. As a international student in want to do my master's in uk. But I'm little confused with the courses. May i know your insights about msc in sport physiotherapy?

[@Physihop]

What course do you want to do?

[@Physihop]

I don’t think we have a sports physiotherapy course MSc course. Like you mentioned we have sports therapy or sports rehab. So for your masters you’ll need to do one these to specialise into a sports physiotherapist since you’re already a physio. I’m currently doing the same thing except I done sports therapy first and now doing my msc in physio

Hello......am a physiotherapist .....can we talk?

[@sharujansatheskumar8335]

hi will be going to uni in September i just wanted to ask is i do a bsc in sports therapy can i do masters in physiotherapy? and if yes will i be able to work in the NHS as a physiotherapist ?

[@Physihop]

Yes you will, that’s what I’m currently doing

[@sharujansatheskumar8335]

@@Physihop thank you for getting back to me i just want to make sure how competitive is to get into masters in physiotherapy with a sports therapy degree because i want to become a physiotherapist and work in the NHS however i have been rejected by nearly every single university because the spaces are full and they said they will give me sports therapy however i know that i wont be able to have a stable job so it worth taking the risk? thank you

[@Physihop]

Honestly it’s mainly about how well you answer the questions, your experience and you being able to explain what physiotherapy is. I didn’t get in my first time applying to the masters

[@jubrilandjonathan4668]

Hiii love this video I’m currently intrested in this subject and I intend to take sports therapy at uni -however do you think I should take physiotherapy or should I do sports therapy and then a physiotherapy degree after?

[@Physihop]

Honestly, if you can get into physiotherapy then I’ll recommend that. If you can’t do then do sports therapy. Reason being is that you’ll have better job prospects and recognised all over. But sports therapy is a good step into physio if you can’t get in

[@miramaers745]

So, after Bhs, in sport you vent to master physiotherapy? Or after foundation in sport got to physio firs year?

[@Physihop]

After my my bsc I went into my masters in physiotherapy

[@MatthewMartin-te3yy]

I need some advice, so I am starting a sports therapy undergrad course this September but I’m now very hesitant in this degree since the job opportunities with this degree is very little. Would you recommend taking a gap year (I’m 20 btw for context I took my college course late and got DDM) and apply for physiotherapy courses for next year or do this sports therapy course and apply for a masters in physiotherapy after?

[@zainabibraheem]

That’s what I was thinking -is studying a physio masters 1 year afterwards?

[@Yarmalate]

What did you decide?

[@chidinmawilson9334]

Is there a PhD in physiotherapy??? If yes, is it possible for someone with an MSc in Sports Therapy to pursue that??

[@Physihop]

I don’t think there is in the UK, Double check. And with an MSc in SPorts therapy I don’t think you would be able to since PhD is mainly for research

[@chidinmawilson9334]

@@Physihop what about advanced MSc for 1yr? Not the pre-reg

[@chidinmawilson9334]

Can I do that instead? With an MSc in Sports Therapy?

[@Physihop]

You can do the MSc in physiotherapy with your masters. All physio MSc are 2 years

[@chidinmawilson9334]

I'm a sports therapist. Some of this info is incorrect. The difference is sst sport therapy is apart of SEM professionals (sports and exercise medicine) this type of medicine is for anyone with a body, not just athletes. We use a sports medicine model of healthcare to optimize physical function and health, whereas physiotherapy utilities the medical model to treat disease. Both Sports Therapist and physios do rehab. Both have different opportunities and different skills, however there are similarities.
