Working Background:
Roberto graduated in 2007 in Alicante - Spain -, being nominated to the national awards in 'Excellence for university academic performance'. Since then, he has worked in the public sector in the knee specialist unit in Spain, and in private practice as MSK physio both in Spain and in England.
He creates a tailor-made approach for each of his patients, promoting recovery with evidence-based treatment and a variety of techniques - dry needling, osteopathic manipulations, and myofascial release.
Due to his experience and qualifications, he specialises in spinal and knee conditions, either MSK or orthopaedics. He also has a clinical interest in cancer rehab - in which he is specialising at the moment - and enjoys treating paediatrics.
