Panagiotis Rentzias

Panagiotis Rentzias serves as a Lecturer in Physiotherapy at the Department of Health Sciences within the School of Sciences at the European University of Cyprus, where he has worked as a Clinical Trainer since 2014. His academic appointments and teaching responsibilities are centered on clinical physiotherapy education within the university's health sciences framework.

His educational background from the European University of Cyprus includes:

• Doctorate in Physiotherapy (2020): Focused on radial Extracorporeal Acoustic Wave Therapy for Upper Trapezius Trigger Points
• Master in Sports Physiotherapy (2015): Systematic Review on Shockwave Ultrasound for Tendon Diseases
• Degree in Physiotherapy (2013)

Dr. Rentzias' research concentrates on evidence-based interventions for musculoskeletal disorders, with particular expertise in:

• Clinical applications of shockwave therapy
• Neuromuscular rehabilitation techniques
• Pain assessment tool validation
• Tendinopathy management protocols
• Whiplash injury recovery mechanisms
• Trigger point diagnostics and treatment

His publication history from 2015-2021 demonstrates consistent specialization in musculoskeletal rehabilitation, evolving from foundational principles to advanced diagnostic validation. Key trends include adapting clinical assessment instruments for Greek populations, establishing dose-response relationships for therapeutic modalities, and translating systematic review evidence into clinical practice guidelines—particularly regarding ultrasound and acoustic wave therapies for tendon and myofascial conditions.

No scientific awards, fellowships, or distinctions were documented in the provided materials.

While his role as Clinical Trainer implies student supervision responsibilities, no specific advisees or grant funding details appear in the source text. Similarly, committee memberships or academic advisory services aren't referenced. The absence of laboratory descriptions or team affiliations suggests his work primarily involves clinical instruction and publication-based research rather than experimental facility management.
