Our program is the most comprehensive neurological physiotherapy program on the market for you to specialize in treatments for people with multiple sclerosis, ALS or Huntington's disease"

The postgraduate diploma in Neurological Physiotherapy in Multiple Sclerosis, ALS and Huntington's Disease has been designed to complement the training of physiotherapy professionals who work with people with neurodegenerative diseases, so that they acquire superior training that will allow them to apply the most advanced techniques in the field of rehabilitation, specific to each of these diseases. 

Accordingly, the program contains a syllabus that delves into multiple sclerosis, covering the pathophysiology of demyelination of the white matter and the appearance of plaques that will help the physiotherapist to differentiate the clinical manifestations depending on each lesion: pyramidal, cerebellar, sensory, etc. Strategies to deal with spasticity and its consequences will also be analyzed; the latest advances in training programs for readaptation to effort, balance and coordination re-education will be presented. 

There is also a section to study Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), in which this disease will be described by explaining the symptoms and signs of involvement of the first and second motor neuron so that the physiotherapist can identify them. Once these concepts have been focused, the symptoms in the different phases of the disease will be analyzed: weakness, fasciculations, respiratory diseases, spasticity, pain, dysphagia, dysarthria, etc. 

Finally, on Huntington's disease, the anatomical areas susceptible to lesions will be detailed: basal ganglia (striatum, caudate nucleus and pale globe) as well as the affected area of the cerebral cortex. As a result, the student will gain knowledge to promote and increase the ability to use complex brain functions such as attention, memory, understanding, integration of what was learned, judgment, problem solving and organization of time. 

In short, TECH has set out to create contents of the highest teaching and educational quality that will turn students into successful professionals, following the highest quality standards in teaching at an international level. Therefore, TECH presents this program with comprehensive content that will help them become elite physiotherapists.
