Why this course?

A complete course that lets practitioners organise their management and get the most out of every return-to-sport session.

La formation en situation

A clear method, so you stop improvising your sessions.

Do you want to structure your management from A to Z with a real periodisation logic, instead of working “day by day”?

This course helps you build a complete, coherent and progressive rehabilitation programme for common sports conditions.

You will learn to coach your patients , to dose load intelligently and to give a clear picture of the progression, to build more buy-in and better results.

From injury to return to sport: field-tested logic, concrete tools, and planning you can put to work the very next day.

Without a clear structure

  • Management built as you go along
  • Sessions sometimes disconnected from how the patient is really progressing
  • Difficulty dosing volume, intensity, density and frequency
  • Few reference points for coaching patients and keeping them engaged over time

After the course

  • A periodisation logic across macrocycle, mesocycle and microcycle
  • Sessions that stay consistent with the patient's progression
  • Better command of the load parameters
  • More clarity, more buy-in, more results

  1. DPC: the Agence nationale du DPC pays the training provider directly, subject to your application being approved and to your annual allowance still being available. Some of the cost may remain payable by you, depending on the course price and the amount funded. The attendance allowance is paid by the Agence, at its own rates and for on-site courses only. The DPC only covers healthcare professions bound by the French three-yearly requirement, and the allowance depends on the profession: the amounts shown are those for masseurs-kinésithérapeutes in 2026.

  2. FIFPL: you pay for the course, then claim reimbursement. It is full or partial depending on the course, and decided by the FIFPL independently of Physio Learning, within your remaining annual allowance and the budget allocated to your profession. The caps shown are those of the masseur-kinésithérapeute scale for 2026; other professions come under their own section's scale. An online course is capped at half these amounts. A French fund, open to self-employed practitioners registered in France.
