Learning Outcomes

The aim of the course is to provide students with the knowledge, skills and general competencies so that after the completion of the course the students:

• demonstrates the ability to compile a proposal for physical therapy according to the current state of the patient

• demonstrates the ability to suggest an alternative to physical therapy in case of contraindications by the patient

• demonstrates the ability to design several variants of therapy with respect to the choice of physical parameters and to create variations of choice according to the circumstances affecting the treatment

• demonstrates knowledge of principles with modern physical therapy technologies, eg laser, shock wave, T.R.T, SIS
