Evolutionary Biomechanics

by Dr. Phil Heaton

Our body remains with us for the entire duration of our lives, and it is therefore imperative to learn about its biomechanics so as to maintain it.
In this day and age, we are constantly being told to walk, run and exercise, but how do they all affect our musculoskeletal system now and as we age?
Due to an ever-ageing population, osteoarthritis has become one of the largest burdens on health systems worldwide. In response, numerous innovations for exercise rehabilitation have been conjured, one of which will be explored during this conference.
Make sure to attend as Dr. Phil Heaton sheds light on this latest development in the field of biomechanics! Don’t miss it!
Join us this Saturday, dear e-EMSA Iasi Enthusiasts!

OCTOBER | Physiotherapy Awareness Month

Physiotherapy is the use of evidence-based kinesiology, health education and exercise prescriptions that originated around 460 BC with Hippocrates and Galen being amongst the first practitioners.
A common worldwide misconception is that Physiotherapy is a medical aid that involves athletes with musculoskeletal injuries, but this could not be further from the truth.
Physiotherapy can be used to treat all people affected by acute and chronic injuries, illnesses and disabilities.
Cardiac patients and cystic fibrosis patients benefit greatly from manual therapy to clear excess secretion from the lungs, but physiotherapy can benefit a plethora of body systems: neurological, integumentary, geriatric and orthopaedic conditions.
We encourage everyone to stay healthy!
