Diploma in Physiotherapy

MAHSA University’s Diploma in Physiotherapy is a 3-year programme for students who have emerged successfully from SPM or its equivalent, and are committed to a future as physiotherapists intent on alleviating physical disabilities and improving the physical human condition.

Students learn to manage and avert the problems that affect the physical functioning of the human body, and to maximize the physical body's movement and agility, with the primary objective of enabling patients to achieve optimal and maximum independence in movement and function. Students learn proven techniques that help manage disorders of the human body for people of all ages.

Students also learn how to provide treatment and care while rehabilitating patients with physical and psychological deficiencies. They will also study subjects such as anatomy, physiology, behavioural science, exercise therapy, electrotherapy, kinesiology and also the communication skills that will enable them to adequately and effectively interact with and counsel their patients.
