What is Athletic Training?


"Athletic training is practiced by athletic trainers, which are health care professionals who collaborate with Physicians to optimize activity and participation of patients and clients.  Athletic training encompasses the prevention, diagnosis and intervention of emergency, acute and chronic medical conditions involving impairment, functional limitations and disabilities.”
