| Abstract: | This paper describes the development and evaluation of a course in physiotherapy whereby the physics fundamental to the modalities
of cold, heat and ultrasound therapies was integrated in lectures and actual physiotherapy activities. The design of the course
is described together with the perceptions of physiotherapy students regarding the organisation of the course, safety aspects
and how well the integration contributed to their understanding of the physics involved in electrotherapy.
