Introduction:

there are many specialists in Health Sciences who have shown how interesting and meaningful to use music in their therapeutic treatments. However, in Spain, only one public university has musical training to train the in its use.

Objective:

this research attempted to demonstrate the need for musical training from the Degree of Physiotherapy, through proposals of Movement with Music from the Jaques-Dalcrozian perspective.

Materials and methods:

a series of body awareness practices with Music was carried out, based on the works of different musical elements and based on Dalcroze's proposals; that ended up being concreted later in role-playing extrapolables to their sessions of physiotherapeutic practices. They were di stributed over four weeks of work, at the rate of three hours per week of work, which ended with the feedback provided by the practical proposals adapted to their future physiotherapy sessions.

Results:

the data showed the importance that the physiotherapist gives to the musical auditory stimulus as motivator and not only as relaxing. The results focused on the internationalization-embodiment by the physiotherapist, were significant because there was an increase in awareness about one's body movement; fact that, it made possible an incorporation of its own proposals during the Practicum period.

Conclusions.

It was possible to verify how the implementation of a musical subject in the Degree of Physiotherapy can contribute to the development of the generic, specific and transversal competences linked to said degree. The University of Valencia thus became a pioneer in offering Music Therapy to its students.
