The latest advances in the diagnosis and treatment of sports injuries in a high-impact training program"

##IMAGE##

A comprehensive program created for physiotherapy professionals, which will allow you to balance your education with other occupations and access from anywhere with total flexibility"

This program is designed to provide students with the essential skills and abilities associated with Physiotherapy and will train them in prevention and the latest special techniques applied to sports.
In order to achieve this, therapeutic exercise forms a common thread that will show the student how to use it as an assessment tool, as a therapeutic agent and as an action model for the prevention of injuries.

You will learn the invasive approach to muscle-tendon injuries, the criteria for "Return to Play", based on clinical reasoning and the use of Therapeutic Exercise. All this with the incorporation of approaches, techniques or evaluations based on the principles of Evidence-Based Physiotherapy.

It contains the specific Physiotherapy intervention models for sports injuries, from diagnosis to applied techniques, developed from the highest scientific demand, enhancing clinical reasoning skills and therapeutic integration.

The direct clinical experience offered by Physiotherapists, whose care work focuses on athletes, is transferred to students through immersive learning tools, real clinical cases and direct monitoring of their learning process.

The professional master’s degree includes those pathological scenarios, physical interventions or therapeutic approaches in which there is a real innovation, and it is this criterion that makes its contents very selective, avoiding the generalist "work manual" type format.

An effective and reliable professional master’s degree that will take you through an interesting and efficient learning process so that you acquire expert knowledge in the field"
