Physiotherapy

Becoming a physiotherapist will allow you to play a vital role in enabling people to maximise their health, wellbeing and quality of life through movement, exercise, manual therapy and education.

This course is designed to provide you with the skills, knowledge and experience required to be a safe, effective physiotherapist that will not only make a difference to individuals throughout their life but also to wider society in a variety of healthcare contexts.

A BSc (Hons) Physiotherapy degree not only provides you with an academic qualification but also a professional status, as the course is accredited by the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) and enables you to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).
