This research study explores the lived experiences of re-injury anxiety among tertiary-level cheerleaders and investigates the role of Music-Assisted Relaxation (MAR) in the rehabilitation process. The study employs an interpretivist paradigm and utilizes an exploratory case study methodology, involving three participants from different cheerleading clubs in Gauteng, South Africa. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews conducted before and after six MAR sessions. Participants' personal experiences with MAR and the potential impact on re-injury anxiety were examined. Thematic analysis reveals four overarching themes: (1) Experience of injury in cheerleading, (2) Mental preparedness, (3) Rehabilitation and Psychosocial Support, and (4) Personal experiences of MAR in Music Therapy. The findings demonstrate the multifaceted experiences cheerleaders have and provide suggestions for what valuable support MAR may offer in addressing re-injury anxiety during rehabilitation. The study contributes to the understanding of the psychosocial aspects of sports injuries and advocates for the integration of creative interventions like Music Therapy in rehabilitation programs.
