BSc Sport Rehabilitation

Course Overview

The BSc Sport Rehabilitation programme at London South Bank University teaches students to become experts in finding and treating problems with muscles, bones, and joints. Those who complete the course are ready to be the first healthcare professionals to respond at sports events. They focus a lot on stopping injuries from happening and creating exercise plans to help people get better, perform well, and improve their general health, even with existing conditions.

The course is taught within the School of Allied and Community Health, which is one of the largest in the country. Students get hands-on experience through practical placements and can also gain additional qualifications, like becoming a certified Sports Massage Therapist. LSBU provides excellent facilities, including special clinics and laboratories. Being in central London also gives students easy access to many places for their practical work.
