Focused on practice, this Postgraduate diploma will allow you to work with the most appropriate techniques in each case in an effective and safe manner" 

The field of application of electrotherapy is very wide, so it is necessary to have an extensive knowledge of both the physiological functioning of the subject and the most appropriate agent in each case. 

This knowledge ranges from muscle contraction mechanisms to somatosensory transmission mechanisms, which makes it essential for the rehabilitation physician to know both the pathophysiological mechanisms of the subject and the physicochemical basis of electrotherapy. 

The objective of the program is to present in an updated way the applications of electrotherapy in neuromusculoskeletal or neurological pathologies, always based on scientific evidence when selecting the most appropriate type of current in each case. 

To this end, the neurophysiological bases of each type of current are always presented at the beginning of each module, so that learning is complete. Each module is complemented by practical applications of each type of current, so that the integration of the knowledge of the pathology and its treatment is complete.

The most comprehensive development in the neurophysiological bases that justify the operation of electrotherapy with an approach tailored to individual practice" 

The Postgraduate diploma in Electrotherapy in Individual Practice contains the most complete and up to date scientific program on the market. The most important features of the program include:

• More than 75 practical cases presented by experts in electrotherapy 
• The graphic, schematic, and eminently practical contents with which they are created provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional
• New developments on the role of the rehabilitation physician in the application of electrotherapy 
• Practical exercises where self-assessment can be used to improve learning
• Algorithm based interactive learning system for decision making in the situations that are presented to the student
• Its special emphasis on research methodologies on electrotherapy applied to Rehabilitation Medicine 
• Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments 
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection 

This complete Postgraduate diploma will allow you to learn about simulated environments and cases, providing you with an integrated, more efficient vision of real situations"  

The teaching staff includes professionals from the field of medicine, who bring their experience to this training program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive training programmed to train in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year. For this, the professional will have the help of an innovative interactive video system made by recognized experts in Electrotherapy in Rehabilitation Medicine, with great experience.

Learn to plan and develop the individual practice of electrotherapy applying the latest approaches and innovations in this field"

This program is designed to convert the student’s work and dedication to learning into real, measurable achievements that maintain stimulation and motivation throughout the process. Throughout the modules that make up the program, students will study each and every one of the aspects that the rehabilitation physician must master to ensure their competence in this type of intervention, namely the physical principles of the laser, its practical application, as well as the physical, physiological and therapeutic fundamentals of the different types of waves. All of the above will guarantee the labor success of future graduates.
