In this episode, we are joined by Tom Astley, a sports physiotherapist with experience across private practice, elite and amateur sport, and the NHS. Together, they explore what really differentiates sports physiotherapy from general musculoskeletal practice.
Tom shares his journey from the NHS into sports physio, discussing the unique pressures, decision-making demands, and expectations that come with working with athletes. The conversation covers return-to-play decision making, managing coaches’ expectations, structured rehabilitation, and why understanding sport-specific demands is essential.
The episode also dives into:
Differences in rehab structure and time pressures
Exercise prescription and end-stage rehab on pitch and court
The realities of private vs NHS practice
Key skills for students and physios aspiring to work in sport
Why communication is one of the most important skills in sports physio
