Louvain-la-Neuve
|
| Main themes |
The main themes to achieve these objectives are :
- biomechanics of the muscle,
- electromyography and kinesiology,
- strength of biological material like bones, tendons and ligaments
|
| Aims |
The aim of this course is to apply the principles of biomechanics in physiotherapy. Using these principles, the student will be able to identify the mechanical causes of several pathologies of the locomotory system, et de justify therapeutic design from a biomechanical point of view.
