Introduction
Exercise prescription for health
Maintaining an active lifestyle by exercising regularly can contribute significantly to preventing the onset of diseases and to improving treatment. This subject aims to provide students with knowledge about pathologies and how to control basic training parameters so patients benefit from exercise.
Sports Physiotherapy
Physiotherapists play an essential role in the therapeutic chain of sport pathology in terms of prevention, physiotherapeutic treatment and the evolution of different injuries, rehabilitation and postsurgical/postlesional processes. Therefore, physical therapists must have adequate knowledge of the possible musculoskeletal injuries in pathological and clinical settings, as well as the most appropriate therapies to prevent and treat them.
Pre-course requirements
Not specified.
Objectives
After completing this subject, students will be able to:
1. Understand the main therapies used in Sports Physiotherapy
2. Understand mechanism of injury, clinical history and various musculoskeletal disorders related to sports
3. Conduct a physiotherapeutic diagnosis and establish a pattern of functional rehabilitation
4. Understand how to set out a preventive sports injury programme
5. Understand the benefits of physical exercise for health
6. Understand the importance of improving physical qualities in order to maintain or improve health
7. Recognise the most prevalent diseases whose prognoses has improved with regular physical exercise
8. Prescribe physical exercise for health thanks to the basic multidisciplinary knowledge they have acquired
