HELLO, I AM ALEXANDRU

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Physiotherapy, a Master’s degree in Rehabilitation Sciences and Physiotherapy from KU Leuven, where I specialized in Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation and Manual Therapy, and the European Diploma in Pain Physiotherapy.

Alongside my clinical work, I am a PhD Researcher at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) and a member of the Pain in Motion Research Group. My research focuses on chronic pain, psychological factors such as anxiety, and how psychologically informed approaches can be integrated into evidence-based physiotherapy to provide more personalized and effective rehabilitation. I am also a member of the Belgian Pain Society’s Young Researchers Panel, supporting initiatives that connect and promote early-career pain researchers in Belgium.

MY APPROACH

I provide individualized, evidence-based physiotherapy adapted to each patient’s symptoms, goals, preferences, and daily life. I consider not only the physical aspects of pain, but also factors such as stress, anxiety, sleep, movement confidence, and previous experiences that may influence recovery.

Some of the techniques I use and specialize in include:

Exercise therapy and progressive strengthening

Graded activity and graded exposure

Manual therapy, when appropriate

Pain education

Relaxation and body-awareness exercises

As a general physiotherapist, I treat musculoskeletal pain (cervical, back, hand, wrist as well as hip, knee or ankle problems). I also treat low back pain. I receive my patients in Brussels at the Medical Center Europe-Schuman on Mondays and Wednesdays and at the Ambiorix21 Center (Square Ambiorix21 1000 Brussels) on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

With a Master's degree in Physiotherapy, my recent training and my various professional experiences allow me to approach the most recent care techniques with maturity and professionalism in order to ensure an optimal functional and sports recovery in the respect, safety and well-being of the patient. The treatments cover orthopedic rehabilitation as well as respiratory physiotherapy (adult and child), geriatric or sports physiotherapy, with a particular emphasis on explaining the pathologies, treatment and prevention. I am currently training in manual therapies and I combine all my skills to help you regain or maintain your physical abilities.

Kinésithérapeute diplômée de l’ULB et spécialisée en kinésithérapie respiratoire pédiatrique et adulte à l’UCLouvain. 

Passionnée par mon métier, j’accorde une grande importance à l’écoute, à la bienveillance et à une prise en charge adaptée à chaque personne.

Du secourisme à la rééducation : une vocation au service des autres.

Mon approche de la kinésithérapie est profondément liée à mon engagement humanitaire. Après huit années d’expérience comme secouriste au sein de la Croix-Rouge Libanaise, j’ai développé une forte sensibilité à la prise en charge des patients dans des contextes d’urgence comme dans le suivi à long terme. Cette double expérience me permet d’aborder chaque patient avec écoute, rigueur et persévérance. Travailleur et dévoué, je m’efforce chaque jour de transformer cette passion pour l’aide aux autres en résultats concrets pour la mobilité, la récupération et le bien-être de mes patients.
