Approach
Hands, movement,
science.
Every treatment is chosen based on your assessment and the latest scientific evidence. No standard recipes: only what you need.

MOTUS RxOne path, from start to finish.
A careful assessment, a clear explanation of what is going on, a tailored plan and the same person by your side: from the first session back to what you love.
The phases of the journey
Five steps, from the first visit back to what you love.
- 01
Assessment
I listen to your story, watch how you move and run specific tests to find where the problem comes from. Then I explain, in plain words, what is going on and what we will do.
- In-depth interview
- Movement and strength tests
- Shared goals
- 02
Treatment
Manual therapy and exercise chosen to reduce pain and restore function, adapted to how you respond session after session.
- Targeted manual therapy
- Therapeutic exercise
- Understanding pain
- 03
Exercise
A progressive programme that increases load and difficulty over time, so results last and your body gets stronger.
- Measured progression
- Strength and control
- Exercises at home too
- 04
Independence
I give you the tools to manage your body on your own: you know what to do if symptoms return and how to keep training.
- Personal programme
- Relapse strategies
- Check-ins when needed
- 05
Return
You get back to what you love, sport, work, daily life, when the tests say you are ready, not just the calendar.
- Return-to-activity tests
- Relapse prevention
- Strength and confidence
The tools
What I use
Every session is individual: all the time is dedicated to you, always with the same physiotherapist.
Why it works
A strong patient–therapist relationship and continuity of care are associated with better outcomes and better adherence to treatment.
- No overlapping patients
- Reassessment at every phase
- Shared, measurable goals
Understanding what is happening in your body reduces fear and pain. We explain the problem in simple terms and give you the tools to manage it.
Why it works
International guidelines for low back pain, osteoarthritis and chronic pain recommend education as a core part of treatment.
- Clear explanation of the problem
- Managing pain in daily life
- Strategies to prevent relapses
The heart of the programme: exercises chosen for you, progressively increased to make tissues stronger and movement safer.
Why it works
Exercise is the treatment with the strongest scientific evidence for most musculoskeletal problems, from tendinopathies to osteoarthritis.
- Strength and movement control
- Mobility
- Gradual load progression
Hands-on techniques such as mobilisations and manipulations to reduce pain and help you move better, always combined with exercise.
Why it works
Manual therapy works best when combined with active exercise: it helps reduce pain and makes movement easier.
- Joint mobilisations
- Spinal and peripheral manipulations
- Soft tissue techniques
You don't always need to stop: together we work out how much and how to move, in sport and at work, to recover without losing fitness.
Why it works
Adjusting load rather than prescribing complete rest supports the recovery of tendons, muscles and joints.
- Personalised activity plan
- Symptom monitoring
- Gradual return to activities
From day one after the injury to getting back on the pitch: every step is decided with objective strength and function tests, not just the calendar.
Why it works
Criteria-based return-to-sport decisions reduce the risk of re-injury compared with time-based decisions alone.
- Return to running
- Jumping and change of direction
- Return-to-sport testing
- Injury prevention
Structured programmes after joint replacements, ligament reconstructions and orthopaedic surgery, in collaboration with your surgeon.
Why it works
Early, progressive rehabilitation that respects healing times improves functional outcomes after surgery.
- Pre-habilitation before surgery
- Phases with clear goals
- Return to work and sport
Elastic and functional taping to support a joint or muscle so you can move with more confidence while you recover, in sport and in daily life.
Why it works
Taping can help reduce pain in the short term and build confidence in movement: it works best as a support to exercise, not on its own.
- Elastic (kinesio) taping
- Functional strapping for sport
- Advice on managing it at home
Programmes for stroke, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis and neuropathies, focused on everyday activities.
Why it works
Specific, repeated practice of daily activities is one of the most effective approaches to regain function and independence.
- Walking and balance
- Independence in daily activities
- Support for family and carers
We track progress with validated tests and questionnaires, so you always know where you are and how far the goal is.
Why it works
Monitoring outcomes with validated tools allows treatment to be adapted and decisions to be shared.
- Strength and mobility tests
- Validated questionnaires
- Regular reassessments
