The study of musculoskeletal injuries via functional assessment with the use of ultrasound scanning and biomechanical material for the improvement of overall function and performance and the prevention of injuries.
The aim of this line is to investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying chronic pain and to test the therapeutic efficacy of treatments targeting these mechanisms.
This line focuses on the analysis of the physical conditions and human movement for the development of tools for the assessment and diagnose as well as for the design of interventions programs.
Prevention of fragility signs in populations at risk by assessing human functions (functional and neurocognitive assessment) and by incorporating nutritional medicine studies on Omega 3.
The research line focuses on research in health services and technologies applied to health, and on the design, implementation and evaluation of health promotion and disease prevention interventions.
To assess the effect of therapeutic exercise and physiotherapy on cardiocirculatory function in adults and older adults with cardiovascular disease, as well as to study the effectiveness of strategies to improve adherence to a physically active lifestyle in these subjects.
Physiotherapy from a global perspective can improve the health of patients with respiratory problems. This line of research aims to develop new tools and implement interventions to assess the prognosis and improve the functional capacity of these patients.
This line focuses on the search for assessment tools and the definition of health promotion and specialised physiotherapy intervention programmes for young children with psychomotor developmental disorders as well as for children or adults with neurological pathologies.
