Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
Biomechanics
Analyses of movements and articulary constraints of the limbs including the muscular and articulary testing.
In coordination with the anatomy course, this course analyses the movements of articulations and focuses on range of motion and muscular testing. It studies the constraints undergone by the various articulations.
Physiotherapy
Locomotor rehabilitation This course describes the techniques of articular mobilization useful for the practice of physiotherapy.
Palpatory anatomy

Mechanotherapy
The structure of the course corresponds to the study of:
- Mecano-therapy systems: levers - pulleys
- Specific mountings geared for posture - traction - mobility
- Guidelines and contra-indications of these systems
- Loco-regional applications
- Modern concepts: arthromotors, isokinetic dynamometers
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Biomechanics
To provoke a reflection on the mechanisms and safety of athletic movements.
Physiotherapy
to raise up a rationale on the effectiveness and safety of the mobilizations in professional practice.
Palpatory anatomy
...
Mechanotherapy
Allowing an understanding of therapeutic guidelines and the limits of mechano-therapy in order to integrate it in other re-educative techniques.
