The Master of Science in the discplines of Exercise, Health and Rehabilitation, focused on current research in rehabilitation, Corrective exercise, leadership, business in fitness, advanced exercise nutrition, anatomy and physiology, posture and pain. Final Dissertation was based on Foot and Ankle impairments and a falls prevention program for the elderly.

I am currently in the last semester of this particular master of science degree, and have so far received 4.0GPA in all subjects and intend to continue with the last two courses with equal passion and relentlessness. My proposed research is based on a very current issue, with ageing populations that are gaining ground and longevity, we equally have higher rates of illnesses and accidental falls, which can, when even moderately severe, be the leading cause of death in the over 65 years age groups. Therefore I targeted my proposal on this subject, with Foot and ankle impairments and the prevention of falls in the older person.
