Our method is based on scientific knowledge, through telling the patient's personal story we can understand their problem, the nature of the pains, their fears, the consequences that all this has on their daily life and also what the expectations are regarding therapy.
Through this knowledge we provide personalized information to have more understanding of one's pains/problems and together with the patient we develop motor strategies using manual techniques: active and/or passive, stretching and exercises to improve function, so that the patient can resume the activities he considers of primary importance as soon as possible.
"To have a satisfactory result, active participation on the part of the patient is required."

Services:
PRESPECTATIONS
Physiotherapy services are performed on the basis of a doctor's prescription and the costs are borne by one's health insurance or accident insurance. Treatments can also be performed without a doctor's prescription, but in this case the services are billed directly to the patient and are not covered by insurance.
PHYSIOTHERAPY
The first meeting with the patient begins with an interview and physical examination that lasts about 45 minutes. This allows the physical therapist to understand the problem, the pains and what restrictions they cause in daily life, and what the patient's expectations are. Then a treatment plan is developed, which may include various techniques and specific exercises.
DOMICILE
Physiotherapy service at home is offered to all people who have motor difficulties in coming to our office.
The patient will integrate what he or she has learned and regained into everyday life, professional occupation and sports. Physiotherapist and patient work side by side to achieve the set goal through an individualized program from time to time.
Our patients include people of all ages, from 0 to 99 years.
REHABILITATION
The goal of rehabilitation is to improve the patient's quality of life and well-being by restoring the person to as much independence as possible. Taking into account factors such as physical, mental, and social status that affect the person. For each person, the purpose and motivation are different and it is important that this is defined in advance.
For example, for one person it is important to return to work or to play sports competitively, for another to be able to live independently at home longer, etc.
Based on each person's different needs, specific treatment plans are created.
So, for one individual it might be exercises to strengthen a limb, for another it might be moving gently to gain more confidence in a body part, it varies from person to person.
To have a more than satisfactory result and for better cooperation we ask for motivation, time and active participation.
The goal is achieved mainly through movement.
From the latest research it is concluded that in many cases movement is the best medicine.
Active movement improves the function of joints, muscles, ligaments, cognitive tissue, circulation, etc., and. mood.
Through movement, muscle strengthening, stabilization, posture alignment or other techniques, one accompanies the person to the intended goal by motivating him or her to regain the pleasure of moving without pain. In some cases it takes specific treatment such as lymphatic drainage. However, we stimulate the person to stay active.

Si è recato a casa mia per una seduta di fisioterapia. Invece ha voluto soltanto parlare per tutto il tempo. La fattura riportava una seduta di fisioterapia intensiva completamente inventata!
