Physio-Centre de Vernier

Life is movement.

The Physio-Centre in Vernier was founded in 1980, but it wasn't until 1990 that I took over the practice, after spending my first two years at the Physio-Centre in Champs-Fréchets.

From the outset, and with the recent and enriching experience I had just acquired, I wanted to remain faithful to a guiding principle when I arrived in Vernier: "Respect the Patient."

This means being available, welcoming, listening, providing care by adapting treatment to the evolution of the pathology, and offering preventive advice while constantly seeking to optimize the quality of the techniques used.

Thanks to continuous training and daily practical experience, I have been able to broaden my horizons in various areas of physiotherapy, in order to offer patients more options in the management of their condition or rehabilitation, and to achieve better end results. However, I have not neglected the classic physiotherapy techniques that form its basis, such as massage, mobilization, post-traumatic or post-operative rehabilitation in orthopedics, neurological rehabilitation, corrective gymnastics, etc.

Physiotherapy

A paramedical discipline that involves treating the human body using manual techniques and natural agents. Its aim is to restore the quality and full range of bodily movements that are impeded by pain, stiffness, paralysis, and other organic disorders. Physiotherapy treats, supports, accompanies, and advises healthy people, sick people, accident victims, and people with disabilities. It prevents illness and accidents. The objectives of physiotherapy are to relieve and/or eliminate pain, reduce and/or eliminate functional disorders in order to achieve a rapid return to everyday life.
