About the Program
The Online Fellowship in Orthopaedic Manual Therapy (FOMT) is an internationally accredited advanced program designed to help physiotherapists master manual therapy techniques for diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders.
This comprehensive program equips physiotherapists with hands-on clinical skills in joint mobilization, manipulation, soft tissue therapy, and evidence-based rehabilitation protocols used in modern orthopaedic practice.
- Step-by-step mastery of Orthopaedic Manual Therapy techniques.
- Comprehensive training in musculoskeletal assessment and clinical diagnosis.
- Advanced joint mobilization and manipulation techniques.
- Soft tissue mobilization and myofascial release techniques.
- Evidence-based treatment protocols used in global physiotherapy practice.
- Clinical case studies to strengthen clinical reasoning.
By the end of the program, you will confidently assess, diagnose, and treat orthopaedic conditions using globally recognized physiotherapy techniques.
