The new techniques that are emerging in the field of rehabilitation and that can be applied in the daily work of sports professionals have allowed further progress in this field, achieving fast and effective recoveries by athletes.

In recent years, the number of research studies related to electrotherapy and the different techniques in this field has grown. These include percutaneous analgesic techniques in which needles are used as electrodes as , well as transcranial stimulation, either of an electrical nature or by using magnetic fields. Based on latter application, the field of action of electrotherapy has been widened and can thereby be applied to various types of patients, ranging from subjects with chronic pain to neurological patients. 

In this particular case, we focus on specific training on electrostimulation of the neurological patient, showing our students the most complete information on the market, since this is one of the fields in which the application of this technique can achieve great benefits.

One of the main advantages of this program is that, since it is 100% online, it is the student who decides where and when to study. Without having to face any kind of limitation, either in terms of time or travel to a physical location. All this, with the intention of facilitating to the maximum the possibility of study for professionals who must combine their training with the rest of their daily obligations.

Immerse yourself in the study of this high-level course and improve your skills as a sports professional"

This Postgraduate certificate in Electrostimulation in the Neurological Patient in Physical Activity and Sport contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include: 

  • The development of case studies presented by experts in electrotherapy

Postgraduate Certificate in Electrostimulation in the Neurological Patient in Physical Activity and Sport

Neurological electrostimulation improves the recovery of movement and functional capacity. Therefore, its use is widely recommended in those athletes who have had an injury or accident and need a complete readaptation that allows them to regain the same control of movements. Get trained with us and acquire a superior preparation with this Postgraduate Certificate specifically designed for sports science professionals. Students enrolled in this academic Postgraduate Certificate will have the opportunity to learn about the theory of electrostimulation, as well as its practical application in physical activity and sport. In addition, students also learn about the use of electrostimulation in neurological rehabilitation. Electrostimulation is a therapeutic technique, which helps patients recover muscle functionality and tone in areas affected by neurological injuries. This technique is used to improve muscle capacity, improve blood circulation and reduce muscle atrophy. This Postgraduate Certificate is designed to provide students with a comprehensive education that will include theoretical concepts as well as hands-on training in electrostimulation. Participants will gain knowledge on the different electrostimulation techniques and their use in rehabilitation.

The program is designed to provide students with a comprehensive education that will include theoretical concepts as well as practical training in electrostimulation.
