Dr. Alice Munari
Physiotherapist
WHO I AM
Dr. Alice Munari. I am a Physiotherapist graduated from the University of Padua, and specialized in Rehabilitation of Musculoskeletal Disorders at the Genoa University.
I'm specialized in Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy (OMPT), treating problems of all parts of the body. Specifically, I am interested in the analysis and treatment of joint and muscle symptoms, both acute and chronic, resulting from trauma, surgery, postural alterations, or tissue degeneration (osteoarthritis).
Being assisted by me means receiving a complete Musculoskeletal evaluation, with the identification of the problem that causes the symptom and giving physiotherapy solutions, and drawing up a personalized therapeutic plan, without the use of drugs.
UPDATE
RESEARCH
Since 2012 I have been collaborating with the University of Genoa for teaching at the Rehabilitation of Musculoskeletal Disorders Master, in Savona campus.
This opportunity allows me to be in contact with high-level physiotherapists and researchers, and to always be updated on the latest news in the rehabilitation and physiotherapy field, according to the scientific evidence present in the literature.
I follow continuously updating courses in the medical and physiotherapy fields, ensuring to the patients the best knowledge in the field of the Evidence Based Medicine (EBM, Evidence Based Medicine).
