A bilingual, exam-mapped review of the 人社部-registered 运动康复师 vocational certification — theory subjects, practical skills, and the high-yield facts you need to pass.

The 运动康复师 Certification at a Glance

The 运动康复师 (Sports Rehabilitation Specialist) certificate is a vocational skill credential registered with China's Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security (人社部备案). It has three levels — 初级 (elementary), 中级 (middle) and 高级 (senior) — and is recognized by gyms, rehab clinics, retirement-care centers, and sports teams.

LevelTypical eligibilityFocus
Elementary / 初级1 yr relevant work, or formal elementary training hours (≈40.5+ 课时)Fundamentals & screening
Middle / 中级Elementary + 2 yrs, or 4 yrs work, or relevant 中专+ educationBroader assessment & plans
Senior / 高级Middle + 3 yrs, or 8 yrs work, or relevant 大专+ with 2 yrsComplex cases & program design

StructureTwo assessments, both scored /100 with 60 to pass

  • Written exam (theory) — Objective: 单选 single-choice, 多选 multiple-choice, 判断 true-false
  • Practical exam (实操) — Live, examiner-scored: ROM assessment, muscle testing, rehab plan, tool operation
  • Retake — A single failed subject can be retaken within 1 year

Theory Subjects & High-Yield Facts

Anatomy · 运动解剖学

KEYStandard position, planes & axes

  • Body divided into 头颈部/躯干/四肢 — Standard anatomical position: upright, palms forward
  • 3 planes — Sagittal 矢状面, frontal/coronal 冠状面, transverse 水平面
  • Joints — Direct vs indirect connection; mobility vs stability trade-off

KEYSkeletal muscle & spine

  • Muscle naming & assembly — by action/shape/origin-insertion; fasciae & bursae as accessories
  • Spine — Vertebrae + intervertebral discs; ligaments; zygapophyseal (facet) joints
  • IVD — Nucleus pulposus + annulus fibrosus — withstands compression
Physiology · 运动生理学

KEYEnergy & cardio-respiratory response to exercise

  • Cell physiology — Membrane transport (simple/facilitated diffusion, active transport); resting/action potential
  • Circulation — Cardiac output = HR × stroke volume; arterial BP; preload/afterload
  • Ventilation volumes — Tidal/IRV/ERV/residual; vital capacity; minute ventilation

KEYMilitary of exercise & internal diseases

  • Exercise stress test — Indications, contraindications, MET measurement
  • CAD / HTN / diabetes — Aerobic training, circuit resistance, 太极拳; cardiac rehab phases I–III
  • COPD / asthma — Pursed-lip breathing, abdominal breathing, 缩唇呼吸法, expectoration training
Assessment · 康复评定学

KEYCore assessment battery

DomainKey tools / facts

Range of motion 关节活动度Goniometry; ROM 关节测量; note purpose/indications/contraindications
Muscle tone 肌张力Spasticity 痉挛 vs rigidity 僵硬 vs flaccidity 弛缓
Balance 平衡Support surface, stability limits; Berg Balance Scale 量表
Sensation 感觉Superficial 浅/ deep 深/ composite 复合 sensation
Gait 步态Stance 支撑相 & swing 摆动相; kinematic/kinetic analysis
Cognition 认知Agnosia 失认, aphasia, attention
Injury · 运动损伤学

KEYCommon injuries & rehab by phase

  • Ankle sprain — Grade I–III; proprioception/balance retraining
  • Shoulder 肩袖 — Shoulder impingement 肩峰下撞击; empty-can (Jobe) test
  • Knee ACL — Lachman test; phases of post-op rehab
  • Patellar tendinopathy — Progressive heavy-slow resistance / eccentric loading
  • CNS 脑卒中/脊髓损伤 — Stroke/SCI rehab phases: acute → recovery → sequelae

REDEmergency red flags

  • Cauda equina — Bowel/bladder change + saddle anesthesia → urgent referral
  • Stroke — Facial droop + slurred speech + weakness → activate emergency
  • DVT — Unilateral calf swelling/warmth after immobilization → Wells criteria, no massage
TCM · 中医健康管理

KEYTCM foundations for health management

  • Yin-Yang & Qi — Balance of yin/yang; 气血津液 qi-blood-fluid as functional base
  • Meridians & acupoints — 12 regular meridians; 穴位 for pain/健康管理
  • Tuina & moxibustion — Manual techniques; 艾灸 warming/cold applications
  • Constitution 体质 — 9 traditional constitutions 九种体质; TMT/TCM-based 健康管理

Live Practical Exam Checklist

The practical station is examiner-scored and emphasizes standard, safe technique — not just the result. Assessors look at your prompting language (询问话术), movement control, and documentation discipline.

  • Joint ROM assessment — Palpate landmarks, stabilize the joint, read the goniometer correctly
  • Muscle strength test (MMT) — Correct start position, isolation of the muscle, grade 0–5
  • Rehab plan — Assess → set goals → match exercises to phase; chronic pain & injury
  • Physical tool operation — Low-frequency/interferential/ultrasound setup, dosing, hygiene
