Advances in Sports Rehabilitation: Clinical Reasoning and Practice

First GISPT International Conference

After the success of the Italian edition in 2014, this year Advances in Sport Rehabilitation become an international event focused on physiotherapy and sports rehabilitation. The goal is to make this event, one of the main scientific events promoted with closer collaboration of the International Federation IFSPT, with most important national scientific networks as well as with the support of the national sport federation and, first of all, of Italian Olimpic National Commettee (CONI).

More than 30 speakers, including 10 international guests, will be the protagonists of the two days that will also include the presentation of important results of TURIN POSITION STATEMENT: LCA POST SURGERY REHABILITATION that will see the conclusion of its work the day before the conference.

The event will be enriched by parallel sessions promoted by some partners of the event, as well as by the presence of three poster sessions that will involve the best Post Graduate students in Sport Physical Therapy.

ASR2015 has been included in the events of Torino2015 - Capital European Sports. Next edition will be in 2017 with the aim to link to our conference also the Symposium and the GM IFSPT.

The scientific GISPT week will include by two courses and a free university conference held by some international guests attending the ASR2015.

We also set up a link with the FIRST WORLD SPORTS PHYSICAL THERAPY CONGRESS to be held in Bern on 20-21 November. GIS Sport will organize a transfer to attend this important conference, that will be linked to the Symposium and the GM IFSPT 2015.
