This module aims to develop the theory and practice of musculoskeletal clinical assessment techniques relating to pathology and injury processes. There will be an emphasis upon injury management encompassing soft tissue massage and mobilization, acute injury care, and taping techniques. Students will gain a critical understanding of the relevance, indications and contraindications of these techniques in relation to specific injury conditions. This module will encompass personal development planning from a clinical perspective, where the development of fundamental clinical skills will require reflection and peer discussion in order to broaden the learning context and depth.
