Introduction to the Program
TECH presents this program as a unique opportunity to work in a theoretical and practical way in an exhaustive update on Hyperbaric Medicine applied to the physiotherapeutic field"
The benefits that can be obtained from therapeutic treatment through Hyperbaric Medicine are diverse. Nowadays, there is a wide range of diseases and ailments in which it is possible to alleviate their effects through oxygenation at high pressures: enhance the body's ability to recover through increased blood oxygen, promote healing, reduce the physiological consequences caused by radiotherapeutic injuries, etc… This is due to the recovery of damaged tissues that occurs during treatment, which positively influences the reduction of inflammation processes and the formation of bone callus in ligament or tendon ruptures, muscle tears, etc.
That is why it is a therapeutic strategy increasingly in demand, so the number of centers that demand the presence of professionals who are familiar with it increases every year. For this reason, and because of TECH's commitment to clinical sciences, it has developed a complete multidisciplinary program through which the specialist in Physiotherapy will be able to catch up with the latest developments in this sector.
It is a Hybrid Master's Degree distributed in 1,620 hours, 1,500 of theoretical training and 120 of practical stay in a prestigious clinical center.In this way, the graduate will be able to update their knowledge based on the most innovative and effective HBOT fundamentals, being able to implement in their practice the techniques and guidelines for diagnosis that have had the best results to date. In addition, having the opportunity to access a reference entity in the field of Hyperbaric Medicine will allow you to perfect your skills through active work with real patients and with the supervision of a team of experts in the area that will do everything possible to get the most out of this incredible academic experience.
