A six-module course on climbing-specific anatomy, injury mechanisms, assessment, rehabilitation, and return to sport — built for physiotherapists who already have strong clinical skills but no climbing background.
No climbing anatomy assumed — but no re-teaching basic anatomy either. It starts exactly where a physio's training leaves off.
Every module cites the climbing-medicine literature it draws from — Schöffl, Schweizer, and the rest of the field, not general opinion.
Differential tables, grading systems, and assessment frameworks you can use in your very next climbing patient's session.
Each module unlocks once you pass the quiz for the one before it — work through it at your own pace.
The sport itself: disciplines, competition formats (Speed, Lead, Boulder), and the vocabulary you'll need for every module after this one.
Full osteology, the flexor pulley system, grip biomechanics, and a dedicated section on growth plates and youth-specific injury.
Injury prevalence by body region and discipline, and how acute versus overuse presentations differ mechanically.
A site-by-site framework — fingers, wrist, elbow, shoulder, knee, and ankle — with differential tables for every presentation.
Evidence-based loading progressions, climbing-specific exercise selection, and grip-type-aware reloading after injury.
Grading readiness by discipline, load progression, protective taping, working with coaches, and monitoring for re-injury.
Work through the six modules in order, at whatever pace suits your schedule. Passing each quiz unlocks the next module automatically.
