DEGREE IN PHYSICAL THERAPY
With RVOE ES/014/2007,SEV.

What is it?

It is one of the most complete careers that involves a deep knowledge about medical, psychological, ethical and all other inherent aspects of the profession. It treats different diseases under the use of physical and mechanical means, according to the previous evaluation of the abilities and own conditions of the patient to improve the musculoskeletal function of the same.

Why study this degree?

It is important to note that according to data provided by the WHO, it is considered that 10% of the world population is disabled.

Hence the concern that currently there are no rehabilitation professionals who can meet this growing need, since it is considered that for every 17,500 disabled, there is only 1 Bachelor of Physical Therapy, which can provide an effective rehabilitative treatment.

The previous problem also extends to health institutions, since they present a great lack, not only in infrastructure, but in the most important, in the qualified personnel to carry out this vital task.

These health institutions offer resolutive treatments but in reality they often provide only a partial solution to the pathologies presented by the patients, since to speak of a complete therapeutic is to also deal with the sequels that may occur in each one of them, until achieving maximum restoration and functionality.

Where do the Bachelors in Physical Therapy work?

The Degree in Physical Therapy has great influence in the whole field of physical rehabilitation and integration of the disabled patient to their daily activities, work, etc. but they also intervene in areas where there is no disability such as: in sports, aesthetics, disease prevention, relaxation, stress management, prevention of muscular disorders, strengthening, etc.

These graduates have, as already mentioned, a very broad field of work, with high expectations and security of contracts, both in the private and in the public initiative, that is: Hospitals of the Secretariat of Health, Social Security, Multiple Care Centers , Rehabilitation clinics, such as those that are part of the DIF infrastructure, Children's Rehabilitation Centers (telethon), private clinics, etc.
