As a student, how do I practise physiotherapy techniques?
• Physiotherapy is a physically demanding profession that requires the development of a range of precise observational and physical skills. Prospective students should be aware that they will be expected to carry out, and have carried out upon themselves as simulated patients, most of the examination and treatment procedures used by physiotherapists. Students practise these skills on each other in tutorial sessions under the supervision of a tutor who is a qualified physiotherapist.
