Improve athlete health & Performance

PERFORMANCE THERAPY COURSE

Elevate athlete performance Through improved Health.

What is performance Therapy?

Performance Therapy is far more than just "taking the clinic outside." It's a sophisticated, necessary approach designed to weave seamlessly into an athlete's daily training routine to enhance movement efficiency, wellness, and overall performance. It is not a replacement for any variety of inputs - clinical or otherwise - beneficial to athlete recovery from training efforts.

It is a systematic intervention tailored to meet the specific needs of each athlete achieved by providing a layer of input aimed at optimizing the quality of daily practice.

Its purpose is to accomplish incremental gains in movement efficiency, and therefore aid in the promotion of wellness and improved performance.

What is the Performance Therapy Course?

Performance Therapy uses ‘therapeutic’ inputs to address what has been traditionally seen as ‘coaching-related’ problems — bringing the therapist's toolbox into the coaching realm.

By doing so, it transcends traditional training boundaries, embedding itself deeply within an athlete's daily regimen to promote not just immediate performance gains, but sustainable health and well-being.

The Performance Therapy Course stands as the culmination of this philosophy, sharing over a century of combined expertise in coaching and therapy, meticulously distilled by our esteemed ALTIS faculty into this digital course.

Through a comphrensive collection of material, it equips you with the foundational knowledge to apply the Performance Therapy Model in your own training environment, while seamlessly providing you with the tools and processes critical for mastering the practical application of Performance Therapy.

Course Structure

The Performance Therapy Course is structured into three engaging 'books' that address theraputic input through the lenses of Philosophy, Science, and Art. Here's how your journey unfolds:

Book 1 - Philosophy

Philosophy: You'll start by accurately identifying the problems that hinder performance, setting the stage for a deep dive into their nature and potential solutions.

Book 2 - Science

Science: Next, you'll analyze the root causes and intricacies of these problems, using evidence-based approaches to dissect and understand the challenges at hand.

Book 3 - Art

Art: Finally, you'll apply creative and innovative strategies to manage and solve these problems, enhancing athlete performance through practical applications.

You'll also gain further insight through a range practical examples and case-studies. This includes reference to the here and now at ALTIS, as well as our own previous experiences, and those of our friends and colleagues from around the world. Finally, you'll hear our thoughts on current ‘hot-button’ topics in sport medicine, including return to play, hamstring injuries, medical imaging, and tendinopathy.

"The Course really challenged me by making me go beyond my comfort zone. It challenged some of my core beliefs, uncovered some biases…and provided a framework on how to function within a performance team. I would without doubt recommend anybody to take this course."

What you'll learn

This course spends a significant amount of time introducing ideas, concepts, and methods before we actually get into the details of how we manage problems. Through this lens, we explore why problems exist, and how to go about understanding the most-appropriate management strategies to these problems.

We spend a lot of time on context - a lot of time on the process. This is important to us, as a crux of this Course pays homage to the fact that we all have our own unique challenges - our own problems - within our own environments. To simply employ a ‘paint by numbers’ approach to solving these problems is not an effective way to further our own individual knowledge, nor that of the industry in which we work.

Throughout, we then offer examples explaining how we have gone about these processes within our own environments - both here at ALTIS currently, and in the past within previous environments we have found ourselves in.

This includes Dr. Ramogida’s experiences with the Seattle Seahawks, and Dan Pfaff with the lead up to Donovan Bailey’s world record 100m run in Atlanta in 1996. Finally, we share examples of how some of our friends have provoked a shift in thinking with respect to how problems are approached within their own industries - including Dr. John Berardi with nutrition, and Dr. Fergus Connolly with training for team sports.
