Introduction to the Program

With this comprehensive Hybrid Master's Degree, you will acquire advanced knowledge on injury prevention and rehabilitation techniques, also developing skills for the evaluation and individualized treatment of athletes"

With the advancement of science and technology, increasingly sophisticated methods have been developed to identify, prevent and treat injuries in athletes of all disciplines. From specific training programs to individualized rehabilitation techniques, health and sports professionals are adopting a comprehensive approach to ensure the optimal health and performance of athletes.

This is how this Hybrid Master's Degree was created, which will deepen the knowledge of the most common pathologies of the locomotor system in the sports and general population. In this way, professionals will acquire a detailed understanding of the biomechanics, physical condition and functionality of the human body, which is crucial to evaluate and detect factors that may contribute to recurrent injuries or prevent effective recovery.

Also included will be the planning and administration of comprehensive programs, which not only seek recovery from existing injuries, but also prevent the occurrence of new ones. This will be complemented with a focus on sports nutrition, providing the necessary tools to evaluate the needs of athletes and make recommendations that favor the recovery process.

Finally, coaching skills and personal training techniques will also be incorporated. These components will be essential to manage the psychological aspects of injured athletes, facilitating a more holistic and effective approach, which improves overall fitness and accelerates recovery. In addition, specific Marketing concepts will be introduced for personal trainers in the field of sports rehabilitation.
