PTHP 7110 - Kinesiology for Physical Therapy Practice (3 Credit Hours)Provides students with the opportunity to develop the skills, knowledge, and competency in kinesiology of human movement as the basis for physical therapy practice. Students will understand normal human motion to provide a conceptual framework for assessing abnormal motion. Content includes principles of the basic structure and function of human joints and skeletal muscle, and biomechanical principles of kinetics and kinematics. These principles of kinesiology are applied to the human body by region including the upper extremity, lower extremity, and axial skeleton. Further application includes posture and gait analysis, and basic assessment and treatment skills for joint mobility impairments.
