Ivan Peristi, Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapist

To help people to refind a condition of physical and emotional stability, understanding the factors which are causing suffering and to find the ideal way to resolve them, is a commitment which goes beyond simple professionalism. Since 2006 I have been an “Orthopaedic Manipulative Physical Therapist (OMPT)”, specialised in the rehabilitation of musculoskeletal disorders, and in sports physiotherapy and, for ten years, I have combined my clinical activity with a didactic role as teacher at the Università degli Studi di Genova in the Medicine and Surgery faculty. To study, constantly update my knowledge, and to experiment therapies remain my priorities and my objective is to find new solutions to make my patients feel a lot better, and this thanks to the application of specific methods which have been scientifically proven as valid. In my approach, however, and in evaluating the most appropriate and effective therapy to adopt I take into consideration other ulterior factors such as stress, anxiety, emotional and psychological unease and which in some way can contribute to the pathological issue.
