AIFIMM MSK Biomechanics

AIFIMM – Institute of Applied Musculoskeletal Biomechanics
provides postgraduate training in musculoskeletal biomechanics for physiotherapists and rehabilitation professionals.

Over nearly three decades, we have developed a physics-based clinical reasoning model that connects vector analysis of muscular forces to therapeutic decision-making in joint and spinal pathologies. The model originated from the clinical work of Françoise Mézières and has been progressively formalized into verifiable biomechanical principles.

More than 6,000 physiotherapists have completed our postgraduate courses, with over 300 courses delivered since 1997.

AIFIMM is independently accredited as a continuing education provider in three systems:
• Italy — ECM Provider No. 1701
• UK — CPD Provider No. 21418
• USA — CE Broker Provider ID 50-54885

Our training is led by Mauro Lastrico, PT, and Laura Manni, PT, who trained directly with Françoise Mézières in Paris and have over 40 years of clinical experience.
