Ο Αλέξανδρος Σιδέρης είναι φυσικοθεραπευτής με κλινική εξειδίκευση στη Μυοσκελετική Φυσικοθεραπεία, το Manual Therapy, τον Βιοϊατρικό Βελονισμό και τη διαχείριση του επίμονου και χρόνιου πόνου. Δραστηριοποιείται σε δύο εξειδικευμένες κλινικές φυσικοθεραπείας, τη Physio Science Clinic και το Pain Physios, εφαρμόζοντας μια κοινή φιλοσοφία σύγχρονης, εξατομικευμένης και επιστημονικά τεκμηριωμένης φυσικοθεραπείας.

Και στους δύο κλινικούς χώρους, η θεραπεία ξεκινά από την ουσιαστική κατανόηση του προβλήματος και όχι απλώς από τη διάγνωση. Η λεπτομερής αξιολόγηση, ο κλινικός συλλογισμός και η συνεχής επανεκτίμηση αποτελούν τη βάση για τη δημιουργία ενός πραγματικά εξατομικευμένου θεραπευτικού πλάνου.

Ιδιαίτερη έμφαση δίνεται στη Μυοσκελετική Φυσικοθεραπεία, στον επίμονο και χρόνιο πόνο, στις παθήσεις της σπονδυλικής στήλης, στις κεφαλαλγίες, στις δυσλειτουργίες της κροταφογναθικής άρθρωσης, στις παθήσεις του περιφερικού νευρικού συστήματος, καθώς και σε σύνθετα περιστατικά όπου τα συμπτώματα επιμένουν ή δεν εξηγούνται εύκολα από μία μόνο διάγνωση.

Παράλληλα, προσφέρονται εξατομικευμένα προγράμματα μετεγχειρητικής και αθλητικής αποκατάστασης, με στόχο την ασφαλή επάνοδο στη λειτουργικότητα, την επιθυμητή καθημερινότητα και την επιστροφή στον αθλητισμό.

Στις υπηρεσίες των δύο κλινικών χώρων περιλαμβάνονται, ανάλογα με τις ανάγκες κάθε περιστατικού, θεραπευτική άσκηση, Manual Therapy, βελονισμός, εκπαίδευση στην κατανόηση του πόνου και σύγχρονες τεχνολογίες αποκατάστασης, πάντα μέσα σε ένα εξατομικευμένο θεραπευτικό πλάνο.

Στους τομείς εξειδικευμένης φροντίδας εντάσσονται επίσης η Φυσικοθεραπεία Πυελικού Εδάφους και η φυσικοθεραπευτική υποστήριξη ανθρώπων στους οποίους ο χρόνιος πόνος, το στρες, η χρόνια κόπωση και η ψυχική επιβάρυνση αλληλεπιδρούν και επηρεάζουν σημαντικά τη λειτουργικότητα και την ποιότητα ζωής. Η κοινή φιλοσοφία των δύο κλινικών χώρων είναι απλή: δεν αντιμετωπίζουμε μόνο τη διάγνωση, αλλά τον άνθρωπο πίσω από αυτήν.
