General description This subject aims to train students to choose the apropriate technics of electrotherapy, ultrasonic therapy, light therapy, magnetic therapy, massage therapy, hydrotherapy and balneotherapy, based on existing scientific knowledge, clinical experience and specific needs (contextual, clinical and psychosocial ones). To get it, the key points are the knowledge of the physical nature of each agent, the effects produced (other adjustable parameters) and how they translate them into physiological and therapeutic effects. To get the skills in the use of equipment and techniques, self working- besides the laboratory classes -is required. One group in the second module (electrotherapy and ultrasonotherapy) will be in ENGLISH for those students interested (but ONLY in the SECOND TERM, so there WILL NOT BE ANY ENGLISH CLASSES IN THE FIRST TERM- NOR THEORETICAL NOR PRACTICAL LESSONS).
