UAX University Polyclinic

As a university clinic, students at Alfonso X University take continuous internships during the later years of their studies, promoting their contact with the working world and cutting-edge treatments. Students will be accompanied at all times by professional tutors who have extensive experience in Physiotherapy and Podiatry. At the end of your studies, you will be prepared to meet the challenges of the modern profession. 

Physiotherapy students will learn the right tools to address the individual’s re-education or functional recovery. They may also treat patients with trauma, neurologic or respiratory pathologies requiring assistance from a physiotherapist professional. 

In addition, we prepare future podiatrists to be able to take a patient, perform a diagnosis, prognosis and personalised treatment, and establish, execute and evaluate the necessary intervention protocols. Foot care is the foundation of the good health of our musculoskeletal system. 

Our units are supervised by a reputable medical chart that will advise students in learning and provide good quality care. 

We have a broad portfolio of services that address the different healthcare needs of patients in the area of: 

• Rehabilitation: treatment of injuries, pathologies, post-surgery and prevention. Our team of experts creates a rehabilitation plan to ensure a prompt recovery. Our facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art technologies such as kinesiotherapy, electrotherapy, electrostimulation, thermotherapy, spinal traction, pressotherapy and mechanotherapy. 
• Podiatry: foot-related, dermatological and functional injuries. In our clinical unit, you have tools to treat the diabetic foot and pathologies such as onychomycosis and papillosis. Orthopodiatry offers a comprehensive biomechanical examination service that allows for the detection of foot postural problems, and an orthoprosthesis workshop that produces the templates prescribed by specialists. In the area of Children’s Podiatry, we emphasise the care of children’s feet, which is why we created the “Annual Podiatry Review Campaign for Children aged 3-17”, undertaking podiatry examinations to avoid future problems. Finally, our surgery service allows for small ambulatory interventions. 
• Nutrition and Dietetics: responds to the demands of a society increasingly concerned about healthy living habits and the care of physical appearance. Personalised treatments of pathologies such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension and eating disorders are performed. 
• Speech: evaluation and treatments for voice disorders, speech, language and swallowing. 
• Physiotherapy: treatment of muscular-skeletal disorders. Our unit offers Pilates classes, manual treatments, dry needling, osteopathy and techniques for TMJ dysfunction. 
• Psychology: stress and anxiety control, smoking cessation programmes. We tailor therapies to each person, for a personalised, high-quality service. 

All of our units enable the delivery of a comprehensive service for athletes, catering to the specific needs of each sport and patient.

• Physiotherapy treatment rooms.
