Learning unit contents

Physiotherapy

Locomotor rehabilitation This course describes the techniques of articular mobilization useful for the practice of physiotherapy.

Mechanotherapy

Mechanotherapy The structure of the course corresponds to the study of:

  • Mecano-therapy systems: levers - pulleys
  • Specific mountings geared for posture - traction - mobility
  • Guidelines and contra-indications of these systems
  • Loco-regional applications
  • Modern concepts: arthromotors, isokinetic dynamometers

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

Physiotherapy

To provoke a reflection on the mechanisms and safety of athletic movements.
to raise up a rationale on the effectiveness and safety of the mobilizations in professional practice.

Mechanotherapy

Allowing an understanding of therapeutic guidelines and the limits of mechano-therapy in order to integrate it in other re-educative techniques.
