In this module you will gain an understanding of the biomechanics underpinning musculoskeletal function; how movement abnormality can lead to injury or disease and how different sports have specific injuries associated with abnormal biomechanics. Finally, you will apply these principles to the biomechanical and sports-specific principles of rehabilitation. At the beginning of the module you will learn the theoretical basis underpinning biomechanics and the general principles of rehabilitation. You will then learn how to assess and describe movement. Finally, you will be expected to be able to use your theoretical knowledge to design assessment and rehabilitation programmes, using specific sports and injuries as examples. This module complements the Injuries and Medical Problems in Sport module (semester 1) in which you will be studying injuries in relation to specific body regions.
