What is Sports Medicine?

Known for being a special division of the healthcare sector, sports medicine has the objective of treating physical ailments caused by sports injuries. It is also the objective of sports medicine to keep athletes as healthy as possible, even if an injury has not occurred. While you may think sports medicine has been around for a long time, truth is, it hasn’t. In fact, the concept of this type of medicine was not developed until the late 1920s. There are many types of doctors that work in the sports medicine industry, including athletic trainers, medical doctors, massage therapists, physical therapists, and more.
