YSP22S1Master's Degree Programme in Sport and Exercise Physiotherapy
Objective
You are aware of the effects of aging and the pathophysiology of most common diseases on the musculoskeletal system throughout the life span. You learn the scientific basis and applications of key therapeutic exercises modalities and exercise physiology of specific therapeutic exercise. You will develop skills to implement and adapt exercise programs for different clinical and non-clinical populations. You learn to critically use different methods and measures to assess function and physical activity. You are able to critically evaluate and implement the results of therapeutic research within current health strategies and policies. You will gain an understanding of the role technology has in health promotion now and in the future.
Content
Pathophysiology of common diseases present throughout the life span
The effects aging on the neuromuscular system
Different exercise modalities available, their scientific basis and optimal prescription.
The role of and assessing physical activity in the different populations and the promotion of a safe and active lifestyle throughout the life span.
Measuring physical activity and interpretation and clinical application of measurements of physical activities
The evidence for dosing, effectiveness and measurement of therapeutic training areas of functioning, functional capacity and functional constraints
Dispensing and programming of exercise in people with the diseases in question
Evaluation of research methods and methods of measuring effectiveness
Use of technology to facilitate physical activity and improve long term adherence to exercise.
