Aims:
To educate physiotherapists, or other healthcare professionals if appropriate, to develop knowledge and skills in Orthopaedic Manipulative Therapy (OMT) focusing on clinical reasoning, skill development and clinical application.
Objectives:
Upon completion of the Scheme, the student should be able to utilise the principles of orthopaedic manipulative therapy (manipulative physiotherapy) and to perform assessment and manipulation of the spine and peripheral joints safely and effectively, in the treatment of musculoskeletal problems.
The program will span over 8 months, with 15 hours of face to face teaching over 3 days (Friday evening, Saturday afternoon and Sunday whole day) every month. Students can have sufficient time between classes to consolidate their knowledge and skills. Students can take the Course over weekends without interfering with their full time work and to reduce the need of travelling and lodging for foreign students. There would be a total of 120 contact hours for the Program.
