Robert Bulik, MSc physiotherapist · Warsaw
I am a physiotherapist and strength and conditioning coach. For over 15 years I have worked with individual patients and professional athletes – including Polish national team players in team sports. I run the Fizjo-Fan clinic at Al. Jerozolimskie 200 in Warsaw and work with patients in English and Polish.
I believe good physiotherapy starts with understanding the cause of the problem and ends only when you are back to full activity – at work, in training, in competition. That is why I combine manual therapy with medical training and guide each patient through the whole process personally, in one place.
Experience
Over 15 years of practice: my own clinic, the Medicover back pain clinic, rugby and basketball clubs and national teams. Day to day I work mostly in orthopaedic and sports physiotherapy – including post-surgery rehabilitation (ACL, meniscus, arthroscopy, joint replacement, spine) and return to sport.

Three principles I stick to
- Cause firstEvery treatment starts with an interview and a functional assessment. Treating symptoms alone gives short-lived relief – I look for what is driving the problem.
- Movement is treatmentManual therapy opens the door, but lasting results are built through medical training. That is why I do both myself, in one place – the clinic and the ZONE Fitness gym.
- Education, not dependenceI want you to understand what we are doing and why – and to know how to look after your body on your own once treatment ends.

For some time I had been struggling with pain and various kinds of overload, but it was only here that I felt I was in good hands. The physiotherapist analysed my problem thoroughly and, above all, explained where my symptoms might be coming from. The visits were to the point and I came away with clear guidance on what to do next. I definitely recommend it!

Od pewnego czasu zmagałam się z bólami i różnego rodzaju przeciążeniami, ale dopiero tutaj poczułam, że trafiłam w dobre ręce. Fizjoterapeuta dokładnie przeanalizował mój problem i przede wszystkim wyjaśnił mi, skąd mogą wynikać moje dolegliwości. Wizyty były konkretne, a ja dostałam jasne wskazówki, co dalej robić. Zdecydowanie polecam!
I recommend Robert from Fizjo-Fan. A proper assessment and well-chosen exercises that target the problem. It worked 🙂
