Courses
A wide range of Electrotherapy Update Courses are delivered throughout the country throughout the year, with varying content, aims and duration, though most are of one whole day duration.
All courses are now organised through an Education group : ElectrotherapyUK. Their web site is at : www.electrotherapyuk.co.uk : and the courses manager, who is the person to contact is : hazel@electrotherapyuk.co.uk.
The list below identified the forthcoming courses which are open to external delegates, together with the course type and contact details of the organiser.
The information is provided 'as is' and by putting the course information on this page, I can not guarantee that it will go ahead (even though it is booked), nor can I influence the cost or other arrangements - these are all down to the local organisation. Most courses will welcome applicants, though some may have restrictions as to the number that can be accommodated or whether they are only available to physiotherapists etc etc.

Electrotherapy I and II Courses
The SKF sponsored courses are based on a 2 day programme, with the one day concentrating on Tissue Repair and the modalities that can influence this process (Ultrasound, Pulsed Shortwave and Laser) and the other day based around electrical stimulation and pain management (covering TENS, Interferential, Muscle Stimulation and Combination Therapy). Each day stands alone, though taken together, they do provide a reasonably comprehensive pair. For 2009 and 2010, the Electrical Stimulation modalities day will run on the first day of each pair (Saturday) and the Tissue Repair Modality day will run on the second day (Sunday)
Tissue Repair Courses - 2010
These will be run through PhysioUK and we are hoping to be able to put on a decent sized event at several key locations around the country rather than lots of small courses. You can either e mail me (t.watson@herts.ac.uk) or link to PhysioUK website to catch up with the latest developments.
