Imagine a patient comes in with headaches or balance problems and you know what to do

Let’s face reality: these are common symptoms, but they can be notoriously difficult to resolve. Do you feel confident you can achieve real, long-lasting results?
You are not alone. These conditions are frequent, complex, and often poorly addressed.
Get ready for a completely different perspective. The oculomotor system, the cervical spine, and the vestibular system work as an integrated unit. It is only by understanding this deep connection that you can intervene with real clinical impact.
You will learn how to manually assess and treat the eyes, the cervical spine, and their functional integration. This training has transformed the way hundreds of colleagues view physiotherapy, and they all share the same feedback: “It completely opened my mind.”

Is this course intended for physiotherapists who work with adults or children?

Symptoms such as headaches, balance disorders, and neck pain are common across all age groups—including adults, children, and adolescents. Therefore, this training provides clinical solutions for a wide range of patients.

Is it necessary to have previously completed PIMT training?

No, not at all. Any physiotherapist will be able to integrate these clinical benefits immediately and apply them to their patients from day one.

But can the eyes really be treated with physiotherapy?

Surprising, isn’t it? Yes, they can. In fact, this approach forms part of a globally renowned programme. Elsevier, the world's leading medical publisher, has already released the second edition of Iñaki Pastor’s textbook on this very subject.

I am already receiving treatment for my neck and skull—why do I also need treatment for my eyes?

The oculomotor system is frequently the underlying root cause of the most common and debilitating symptoms, particularly following head and neck trauma. Until these visual pathways are directly addressed, your symptoms are unlikely to fully resolve. In fact, you may already feel that a crucial piece is missing from your current rehabilitation.

What do healthcare professionals think of the programme?

Sergio Recchia

The course was excellent. Through his expertise, knowledge, and passion, Dr. Iñaki Pastor enabled me to fully understand the cervico-ocular system and its therapeutic applications for both children and adults. The course allowed me to integrate a key component into my clinical reasoning and gain an essential perspective on the relationship between eyes and neck — indispensable for interpreting symptoms that are often overlooked.

Beatrice Roda

A wonderful training course, detailed and carefully designed in every aspect. The teacher — SUPER!

Giorgia Verdecchia

I am a physiotherapist specializing in motor rehabilitation for patients with post-cranial trauma, who often present not only sensorimotor difficulties related to altered muscle tone, balance disorders, postural instability, and craniofacial dysfunctions, but also cognitive issues linked to attention, perception, language, and visuospatial deficits.Interaction with the surrounding environment and the pursuit of increasing responsiveness are fundamental in the rehabilitation of post-craniofacial trauma patients.Specifically, body awareness in space, guiding its reorganization of movement, and the ability to relearn lost information are often highly complex.I recommend the Manual Therapy in the Oculomotor System course to anyone who wants to place the person and their specific needs at the center.The course with Dr. Iñaki Pastor Pons allows one to evaluate the connection between the eyes and the cervical spine and to treat cervico-ocular disorders by relating the visual, postural, and vestibular systems.An instructor with great communicative and technical ability — a surprising course and an overwhelmingly positive experience.

A very well-structured and organized course that opens up a new world rarely addressed in physiotherapy. I’m sure it will change my clinical practice, just as all TMPI courses have done.

Silvia Iezzi

This course was delivered excellently by Professor Iñaki Pastor Pons, who paid meticulous attention to every detail of the clinical, technical, and communicative aspects. Everything addressed was extremely precise, organized, and explained in every nuance.The instructor also proposed practical exercises to understand and consolidate daily work, creating many opportunities for reflection and professional exchange. He also performed treatments on real clinical cases, which were extremely useful and meaningful.This course provided me with numerous tools applicable to everyday clinical practice, to be integrated with those I already had — but above all, it offered great personal and professional growth.Finally, the clarity, passion, and care conveyed by the instructor are a powerful motivation for me to go deeper, improve every day, and choose more consciously how to conduct my work, reasoning, and reflections.

An exceptional course that changes the way you approach the problem. Highly recommended.
