Abstract
The aim of the course is to introduce the student to the principles of human kinesiology and biomechanics, including the basics of developmental kinesiology and movement control, which are essential for their practice.
Learning outcomes
Ability to analyze the movement laws of the motor system and to use these principles in the therapy of the patient.
