Physical training and sport as health therapy

.

""Sport consists of delegating to the body some of the strongest virtues of the spirit: energy, audacity, patience."" Words of the writer Jean Giraudoux. Whether for an athlete who wants to break a record or for a student who wants to experience the mind-body balance, it is indisputable that the practice of physical exercise is a source of inexhaustible benefits. However, it is necessary to know its different nuances of application depending on the case. It is not the same to train a diabetic patient using gymnastic techniques as it is to give fitness classes to a pregnant woman, or to provide rehabilitation therapies to an athlete with a locomotor disorder. Fortunately, here at TECH we have prepared the most complete curriculum to address the above and many other casuistry.
