* = Continuing Professional Development
It is necessary for the physiotherapist to have a License issued by the Chamber of Physiotherapists of Montenegro, https://komorafizioterapeuta.me/ Office space of about 65 square meters, two wet nodes, complete equipment for physical therapy, physical modalities and kinesitherapy. Regardless of the fact that, for example, a physiotherapist would not deal with electrotherapy, but only with kinesitherapy for children, he must have such a large office space and a set of equipment for physical therapy. The employee is a physiotherapist with a university degree.
