Specialize in Neurological Physiotherapy and offer more personalized treatments to people with Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and Cerebellar Degenerative Diseases" 

Neurodegenerative diseases can cause various symptoms in patients, such as problems with movement, balance, breathing, speaking, or heart functions. These types of diseases are progressive in nature, meaning that patients display a reduction in functional capacity, and therefore suffer from reduced personal autonomy, making it difficult to perform daily tasks. As a result, physical dependence on a caregiver or support device increases.  

In these cases, physiotherapists are indispensable members of the multidisciplinary teams that treat people with neurodegenerative diseases on a daily basis. In order to enhance their training, TECH has designed this specific program on neurological physiotherapy in patients with Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s or Cerebellar Degenerative Diseases. 

The teaching staff of this Postgraduate diploma is composed of specialists in the areas of intervention of each pathology, from prestigious health centers and universities, sensitized to continuous quality training based on scientific evidence to provide a holistic approach to the patient with neurodegenerative disease, and committed to quality teaching through new educational technologies. Learning is done through real cases, guided by an expert, and continuous evaluation through assessment and self assessment activities and exercises. 

In short, TECH has set out to create high quality educational content 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 neurological physiotherapists.
