Medical department
An injury is a major physical and mental challenge. That is why the medical department, led by Frank Hanauer and Dr. Andreas Wittke, is particularly important to us at DFI. In order to get back on the field as quickly as possible after an injury, our medical department works closely with Physiopraxis Zißler in Bad Aibling and Dr. med. Kahle from the Sport-Orthopedics practice in Rosenheim, where we have regular, standing appointments every week.
We are very proud of our "traffic light system" concept, which works as follows: The injury is first diagnosed by the specialist in Phase I before the student comes to the physio-therapeutic department in Phase II. Here the necessary treatments for a quick recovery are carried out. Finally, we move on to Phase III with our rehab and athletic trainers. This involves training football-specific movements with successively increasing loads and then deciding with the respective team coaches on a re-entry plan into team training and regular competition. All of this is according to our motto: "I'll be back stronger than ever!"
This allows us to ensure that boarders receive the best possible support at all times for a speedy recovery and return to football training as soon as possible. All of this requires a high degree of trust in the cooperation with our respective partners. Our sole interest is the athletic development and well-being of our students.
