Kocaelispor Physiotherapist Mehmet Akif Oker Met with Our Students

As Kocaeli Health and Technology University, Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, we hosted Kocaelispor Physiotherapist Mehmet Akif Oker on November 10, 2025, within the scope of the “Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation in Sports” course.

Oker shared the dynamic nature of sports physiotherapy with our students, along with cases encountered in professional football settings and on-field rehabilitation processes. In his presentation, he provided important information on the role of the physiotherapist in sports injuries, acute interventions, and performance recovery protocols.

At the event, which attracted great interest from our students, how theoretical knowledge is integrated with field experience was impressively conveyed.

The event was an inspiring gathering that strengthened our students’ career goals in sports physiotherapy.
