PHYSIOTHERAPY

At moveOn Fisio we only have private sessions. In the first session, the physiotherapist will assess and start the treatment, according to your needs. Your recovery will be permanently monitored by the physiotherapist responsible for you: he/she will adapt and personalize your plan according to your characteristics, condition, evolution as well as needs and goals, whether at the clinic or in the comfort of your home (online).
