Physiotherapy
Experiencing physical discomfort? The Sports Medical Center Maastricht (SMC) offers sports consultation hours and physiotherapy treatments at the University Sports Centre, exclusively for UM SPORTS members. Early advice could be crucial in preventing further complications.
Free consultation for UM SPORTS members
If you're experiencing physical discomfort, take advantage of a complimentary consultation by SMC's skilled physiotherapists. During the consultation, you can discuss any concerns as well as your athletic goals, and the physiotherapist will assess your condition at no cost.
Each UM SPORTS member receives one free consultation per indication per year. This means that you can make use of the sports consultation hour once with the same complaint free of charge. If you go for additional follow-up treatments, any costs will need to be covered by you or your health insurance company (depending on how you are insured).
When is physiotherapy useful?
Physiotherapy treatment can be beneficial for:
- sports injuries
- strains or sprains of muscles, tendons and ligaments
- rehabilitation after broken bones or surgery
- other symptoms that prevent you from doing sports
- injuries due to studying or desk work
- stress-related injuries
The physiotherapist can also help you improve your posture, move your body more effectively and prevent injuries.
Insurance reimbursement
The coverage of physiotherapy treatments varies by health insurance policy. Please contact your insurance provider to find out their policy on reimbursement.
