Description

Movement, as a tool for the development and enhancement of cognitive functions, is the key to the development and implementation of Neuroeducation in Physical Education. A new concept of enormous importance for the patient’s quality of life"

##IMAGE##

This program arises with the purpose of expanding the benefits offered by neuroeducation, from the perspective of sports performance and also in relation to personal development based on physical and emotional well-being. This is based on the new knowledge of brain science to focus, in a practical way, on how to implement it in the reality of physiotherapy.

It is necessary to prepare physiotherapists in neuropsychoeducation, understanding the brain mechanisms underlying learning, memory, language, sensory and motor systems, attention, emotions and the influence of the environment on all of this.

Science has advanced in the study of the brain as a learning organ, with the aim of helping each person to develop their cognitive, intellectual and emotional potential to the fullest. Although current education aims at a comprehensive education, it is still focused on cognitive aspects, with little development in terms of emotional aspects; little and/or no management of one's own and others' emotions, scarce self-motivation, self-control and communication skills.

The prestigious professors of this program have contributed their specialized and advanced knowledge based on experience and rigorous scientific criteria in the development of this educational program of high scientific and academic rigor. 

All the modules are accompanied by abundant iconography, with photos and videos of the authors, with which it is intended to illustrate, in a very practical, rigorous and useful way, advanced knowledge in Neuroeducation and Physical Education for Physical Therapists.

Professional Master's Degree in Neuroeducation and Physical Education

The locomotor functions of the human body have a common link: the brain. Muscles are activated by electrical activity that changes chemicals called neurotransmitters. These are produced by synapses that, in the case of the musculoskeletal system, are based on the so-called motor neurons, located mainly in the medulla or central nervous system. How can we conceive then physical activity and the therapeutic treatments that concern it without taking into account the postulates of neurology? It is precisely to delve into this that TECH Technological University has created the Professional Master's Degree in Neuroeducation and Physical Education: a program structured in ten modules that seeks to cover, from a 100% online environment, essential topics for the practice of physical therapy: from the basics of neuroscience, to the motor and play-technical practices that promote brain development. As a leading teaching center in distance higher education, we provide the professional with a training of great rigor, but easy to assimilate.

Get trained in Physical Neuroeducation

It is not only about sports performance or athletic demand, physical therapy under the optics of neuroeducational processes provides optimal resources for the development of physical and emotional well-being. This is especially important because current education tends to prioritize the cognitive aspect, leaving aside the emotional facet and all the elements that derive from the good management of this, such as self-motivation, self-control or communication skills. Our Professional Master's Degree gives you not only theoretical conceptualizations concerning the cerebral field but also skills in practical methodologies such as aerobic exercise or meditation. The latter, praised by scientific research due to the neuroplasticity faculties it gives to the brain, among other multiple benefits. By accessing the program offered by TECH you will be able to create a real positive impact in various work sectors: in a school environment, for example, or in clinical and health centers, since our program also addresses the prevention of cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Why stay in the basics of physical education or physiotherapy? At TECH we train experts who transform the future.
