John Alegi, P.T., I.M.P.,C.

John Alegi began working at Regional Physical Therapy in February of 1998. He graduated from the University of Connecticut in 1988 with an education degree concentrating in Sport biomechanics. In 1991 he graduated from the University of Connecticut with a degree in Allied Health concentrating in Physical Therapy. Upon his graduation john worked in the acute care setting at Waterbury Hospital in Waterbury Connecticut. He gained valuable experience from various experts and experienced clinicians in the areas of inpatient and outpatient rehab, wound care, and ICU intervention. John also worked in the Sports Medicine arena that allowed him to learn skills in the areas of orthopedics, neurologic, and geriatric rehab, and clinical biomechanics focusing on foot orthotics and gait analysis using computerized motion analysis equipment. This setting also exposed John to management of an outpatient physical therapy setting.

Currently, John lives in Fayetteville, Georgia, with his wife Carol and sons Matthew and Christopher, where he is the Practice Manager for the Center for Integrative Manual Therapy of Atlanta. Additionally, John has been an instructor for DCR and has taught a wide variety of IMT courses, and he has worked at various IMT centers throughout the country.

John continues to study and gain expertise in all aspects of IMT with success in achieving client satisfaction and functional outcomes across many type of diagnoses that include back pain, headaches, spinal cord, stroke, autism, and more. John is currently interested in the advanced field of clinical biomechanics. His clinical research includes the application of regulatory mechanisms applied to biomechanics, sacral mechanics and dysfunctions, the application of consciousness driven systems with clinical biomechanics, multi-system biomechanics including the organ system and the immune system, Additionally, John is interested in the study of circulatory mechanics and quantum physics. In the future, John plans to obtain his PhD in advanced clinical biomechanics. This will foster contributions toward improved client satisfaction and functional outcomes for all patient populations, published research, and the development of curriculum for DCR and for the Connecticut School for Integrative Manual Therapy.

John is a licensed physical therapist in the states of Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina. He is a member of the American Physical Therapy Association and plans on future participation on the realm of legislation and government pertaining to health, education, and awareness.
