| 1. | This course defines the fundamental concepts and principles related to the methods covered in Electrotherapy II. |
| 2. | This describes the biophysical principles and physiological effects on tissue of electrotherapy agents such as high-frequency currents (SWD, PSWD, MWD), ultrasound, laser, magnetotherapy, and ESWT. |
| 3. | Participants gain the ability to apply Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) and Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) methods within the framework of established protocols and with correct technical parameters. |
| 4. | In cervical and lumbar traction applications, the practitioner knows the appropriate traction force (kg), application angle, and method; and applies these determined parameters with the correct technique. |
| 5. | They know the indications and contraindications of electrotherapy agents and traction; they perform the procedures according to appropriate technical and safety principles. |
