Goals and benefits
Physiotherapy: what it is and what it’s for
Physiotherapy is a branch of medicine practised with specific expertise by qualified physiotherapists.
It is a scientific profession aimed at rehabilitating individuals who have experienced various motor
conditions, enabling them to live their daily lives to the fullest and improving their approach to everyday
activities, including work, leisure, and sport.
The aim of physiotherapy is to treat and rehabilitate patients with congenital, musculoskeletal, or
neurological conditions, and to prevent such dysfunctions through personalised methods tailored to each
patient.
From the first symptom to therapy
Personalized physiotherapy program
1. Medical diagnosis
The physiotherapist begins by referring to the medical diagnosis, then conducts a case history (anamnesis) and collects data from the patient to understand the main issue and the factors limiting their ability to perform daily activities.
2. Medical history
After the diagnosis, the physiotherapist gathers detailed information about the patient’s health condition, symptoms, and functional limitations. This stage of listening and assessment is essential to identify the root cause of the problem and define the goals of the therapeutic program.
3. Treatment
The physiotherapy treatment is tailored to each patient, with progress constantly monitored. The intervention is based on scientific evidence and up-to-date techniques, aiming to reduce pain, restore functionality, and improve quality of life.

What Our Patients Say
Patient Reviews
Dopo una passeggiata in montagna, ho avuto un mal di schiena allucinante che non mi dava tregua. Su consiglio di Elisa, maestra di Pilates, mi sono rivolta a Lorenzo Villa, fisioterapista e fin da subito mi sono sentita seguita e ascoltata.
Grazie a una combinazione di esercizi mirati e massaggi, la mia schiena è tornata come nuova in pochissimo tempo. Lorenzo non si è limitato a trattare solo quel problema, ma mi ha aiutato anche con altri dolori che avevo da tempo, dimostrando grande professionalità e attenzione.
Ora so con certezza che, se dovessi avere bisogno di nuovo in futuro, da Lorenzo sarò sempre in ottime mani!!
Consigliatissimo 😊
