Did you know that electrical stimulation can also be ICF-compatible?
Electrostimulation is a helpful tool that has rightly earned its place in neurorehabilitation. In this course, you will learn about the different forms of electrical stimulation and know when to use them.
In our digital course on electrical stimulation (ES), you will learn practice-oriented and scientifically sound approaches for the effective application of this method in therapeutic work. Specially designed for occupational therapists, physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals, the course provides a basic understanding of ES to support muscle activity, motor learning and structural and functional improvements in your patients.
