With this 100% online Postgraduate Certificate, you will design the most effective and safe therapeutic interventions taking into account the intestinal health of your patients”

From inflammation control to pain modulation, the gut microbiota is a relevant aspect in the pathophysiology of various musculoskeletal pathologies (including sports injuries, low back pain and scoliosis). In the physiotherapeutic field, specialists need to have a solid understanding of how the microbial flora impacts both the progression of conditions and the response to treatment of these conditions. In this way, professionals will adopt a holistic approach in their routine clinical practice that will contribute to a more optimal recovery process and, therefore, improve the overall well-being of their patients.

Within this framework, TECH presents a pioneering and revolutionary Postgraduate Certificate in Microbiota and Microbiome. Its main objective is for specialists to understand how the composition and function of these biological systems affect recovery from injuries and other physical conditions. To this end, the academic itinerary will delve into the groups of microorganisms that interact with the human species (such as bacteria, fungi or viruses), as well as the different Human Microbiotas and their respective generalities in terms of their Eubiosis and Dysbiosis. This will allow graduates to adequately manage injuries or wounds, taking preventive measures to reduce risks to the health of individuals. In addition, the program will include the participation of a renowned International Guest Director, who will offer a rigorous Masterclass where he will delve into issues such as Epigenetics-Microbiota interaction or the latest advances in Fecal Transplants.

Moreover, this university program is based on the innovative Relearning system. Thanks to this, students will reduce the number of hours of study and will solidly consolidate the concepts addressed throughout this academic itinerary.  All physiotherapists will need is a device with an Internet connection (smartphone, computer or tablet) to access the virtual platform and access the most dynamic didactic resources in the academic market.
