Content

During this course the student will learn the professional skills that are important for assessment and treatment of patients with non-specific musculoskeletal problems of the spine. This involves training clinical reasoning and the proper execution of assessment and treatment techniques with the corresponding adequate dosage. In addition, the student must be able to specify the indications for the various techniques, as well as their place and structure within the physiotherapeutic treatment. The connections with other professional skills will also be established.
