Romain Artico is a physiotherapist masseur, and holds a Master 2 VHMA research option, and a Doctorate in movement sciences.
 
Passionate about sport, movement and caring for others, he isphysiotherapist for 8 years in geriatric SSR.
​
He was first interested in the fall of the elderly and the search for its causes in the field of movement and balance. This is how clinical reasoning played an increasingly important role in his training.
​
In parallel with his hospital activity, he has always been strongly interested in musculoskeletal training by working with competitive or high-level athletes (BMX, Badminton).
​
To improve his clinical reasoning, he trained with the Maitland concept in which he discovered a scientific vision of clinical reasoning that he enjoyed appropriating and practicing.
​
Passionate about teaching and research, he completed a doctorate in movement science on balance mechanisms in which he was able to delve deeper into the fields of neuroscience and biomechanics.
​
 Neuroscience and in particular Bayesianism have enriched his vision of clinical reasoning and made him want to transmit it both in IFMK and in continuing education.
