حول مجموعة التخصص
ISEAP is an international physiotherapy organisation with specific interest in the area of electrophysical agents (EPA).
The International Society for Electrophysical Agents in Physiotherapy (ISEAP) was officially founded on 8 February 2009 at its inaugural congress in Las Vegas, USA, and admitted as a specialty group at the 17th General Meeting in Amsterdam, June 2011.
The general consensus was that in order for EPA to remain relevant in today’s evidence-based practice environment, major changes are needed in the way we practice, in how we teach present and future users of EPA, and in the way we approach the evidence to justify its continued usage. There was also general consensus amongst those present that going about this in isolation may not be the best way to move EPA forwards. Discussions during the meetings focused on the need to form an International EPA Society, and also on exploring and proposing various models for bringing about these changes.
