Course objectives
The aim is to improve theoretical background in a field of functional organization of human neuro-muscular control, principles of motor learning, human development and neuro-plasticity of central nervous system. Furthermore the objective is to apply neuro-physiological principles of neuro-muscular control and brain structure in movement disorders physiotherapy.
