One of the newest and most effective treatments in physiotherapy today is electrotherapy. This way, physiotherapists who wish to experience an update of knowledge and specialize in this innovative area have a great opportunity to progress with this program. With this Certificate, they will be able to deal with 100% real cases of patients requiring this type of techniques, spending a stay in a first level hospital institution and always accompanied by prestigious specialists in the field. Thanks to this, in just 3 weeks, they will have new skills that they will be able to apply to their professional fields. 

Electrotherapy is a valuable methodology for rehabilitation in patients with various health complications. Therefore, this Certificate includes latest knowledge and techniques, focused on mechanisms of muscle contraction and somatosensory transmission. This way, teaching acquires a high level that will lead physiotherapists to know subject's pathophysiological systems and physical and chemical bases of this type of treatment. 

This Internship program in Electrotherapy in Physiotherapy is, therefore, a great option for all those professionals who want to obtain new skills and tools in this field, so that they can later provide the latest treatments to their patients. As a result, graduates who have completed this Certificate will see their reputation increase, gaining new clients and becoming great references in their geographic environment. 

This stay is characterized by its duration, 3 weeks, and by its intensive format, with which students will be able to accompany great specialists in Electrotherapy applied to Physiotherapy for 8 hours a day, following a schedule from Monday to Friday. Students in this program will be able to receive continuous and fluent learning in this discipline, which guarantees that  experience of this stay will be as close as possible to a full work experience. At the same time, they will be accompanied by an assistant tutor. This figure will be in charge of supervising their practical progress, as well as facilitating their active integration into dynamics of the reference center for this Certificate. In addition, these institutions have been chosen by TECH for their international prestige and access to the most modern technologies in this area.
