Through this program, you will master the most innovative techniques in Neurological Physiotherapy and enhance the overall well-being of patients with various nervous system disorders” 

A recent study conducted by the World Health Organization estimates that over 60 million people suffer from some form of Neurodegenerative Disorder. In light of this reality, the organization emphasizes the growing need to develop highly effective therapeutic approaches that go beyond traditional medical management. In this context, Neurological Physiotherapy is becoming a key intervention to assist individuals in their functional recovery. Therefore, professionals need to handle the most modern therapeutic interventions to improve mobility, reduce muscle stiffness, and increase user independence. 

In response to this framework, TECH presents an innovative program in Neurological Physiotherapy. Developed by leading experts in the field, the academic pathway will delve into areas ranging from epidemiological foundations to the clinical specifics of the main Neurodegenerative Diseases. The syllabus will provide graduates with the most cutting-edge diagnostic methods to early identify signs of conditions such as Multisystem Atrophy, Multiple Sclerosis, or Acquired Brain Injury. Thanks to this, professionals will develop advanced clinical competencies to design personalized physiotherapy intervention plans, improving the quality of life for patients, optimizing their functional recovery, and promoting their autonomy.  

To reinforce these concepts, TECH relies on the revolutionary Relearning method. This learning system promotes a natural and progressive assimilation of content, without resorting to the traditional memorization process. Furthermore, specialists only need a device with internet access to update their knowledge. In this regard, experts have full freedom to individually plan their schedules and educational timelines. Additionally, on the Virtual Campus, they will have access to a library full of multimedia support resources, including detailed videos, specialized readings based on the latest scientific evidence, and interactive summaries.
