Training of the National Chamber of Physiotherapists

The National Chamber of Physiotherapists is organizing a series of free and certified FIZJO-LEARNING training sessions. One of the topics particularly close to EGZOTech is “Surface electromyography in physiotherapy practice.”

Surface electromyography is a modern muscle testing method that allows physiotherapists to accurately monitor and evaluate muscle function in patients. As part of the training, participants will have the opportunity to learn about the principles and practical aspects of using surface electromyography in their daily work.

The aim of the training is to improve the professional competence of physiotherapists in the field of physiotherapy for patients with infectious diseases, especially COVID-19, disease rehabilitation, and physioprophylaxis in neurophysiotherapy.

The training will be conducted in the form of practical workshops led by experienced specialists in the field of physiotherapy and surface electromyography. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about electrode selection, equipment calibration, conducting EMG tests, and interpreting results.

The training is aimed at both novice and experienced physiotherapists who want to expand their knowledge and skills in the field of surface electromyography. We encourage physiotherapists working in clinics and hospitals as well as private practices to participate in the training.

The training will take place in various cities in Poland, including Warsaw, Krakow, Gdansk, Poznan, and Wroclaw. Training dates and registration information are available below or at www.fizja.pl
