About the Society of Sports Therapists
The Society of Sports Therapists is the United Kingdom’s lead organisation for Sports Therapists, established to ensure the highest standards of education, professional competence and athlete care across the sector. The SST collaborates with universities nationally and internationally to accredit recognised qualifications, and supports its members through professional guidance, insurance, continued learning and advocacy across sport and healthcare.
The organisation continues to drive excellence in sports therapy by promoting best practice, supporting practitioner development and ensuring the protection and wellbeing of both athletes and therapists.
How SST Supports Athlete Now Members
Through this partnership, SST members gain new pathways for career development and increased visibility within the athlete community.
Athlete Now showcases only degree qualified Sports Therapists, and we will clearly mark those who have completed SST accredited programmes to support informed choice and professional transparency.
This alignment strengthens trust across the industry and ensures athletes receive care from therapists who meet nationally recognised standards.
