Physiotherapy
Help restore someone's movement and functions, giving them back their independence.
Introduction
Amongst a team of skilled healthcare professionals, physiotherapists independently identify, assess and analyse physical problems and treat them by taking a holistic approach.
Our courses incorporate the core values of the NHS to help prepare you for the challenges of working in contemporary healthcare. You’ll practice skills in our simulation labs, giving you a safe space to develop your expertise in a supportive environment.
You’ll spend time on clinical placements in every year of your studies to help you apply your learning and skills in a real-world setting.
After you graduate as a chartered physiotherapist, you could work in the NHS or the private sector, in the community and care homes, or schools.
Why Manchester Met?
I chose to study physiotherapy because I think it’s a very intuitive, engaging and rewarding course. After attending a visit day, I got to experience what the university is like, meet the lecturers and current students, and gain a real sense of what it's like to be a physiotherapy student here.
