Biosciences provides the foundation for understanding the link between theory and practice in science as applied to health and sports therapy practice.
The human body is a complex and constantly active chemical factory that utilizes nutrients for growth, repair and production of energy. Biochemistry provides part of the background knowledge essential to understanding body structure and physiological function. Biophysics provides a valuable framework for the study of movement, muscular contraction, the effect of ultra-sound, x-rays and therapeutic and diagnostic instrumentation.
