Introduction to UK physiotherapy degrees for Malaysian students
A Physiotherapy degree teaches students how to help and treat the young and old suffering from illness, accidents or ageing. Through the use of manual therapy and therapeutic exercise, qualified physiotherapists will help with spine and joint problems, specifically after operations and rehabilitation following sports injuries, strokes and accidents.
Physiotherapy modules study the basic principles of healing, repair, and movement analysis in year one and patient assessment and management in year two. Your final year of study will involve providing an in-depth study on a subject within physiotherapy, plus a greater responsibility in clinical reasoning and decision-making.
