Adèle Mesnil
Physiotherapist
Energetic and highly motivated by nature, I began my professional career as a paediatric nurse and spent three years in various paediatric departments at the Geneva University Hospitals (HUG), including paediatric emergency, surgery, the baby unit (newborns to 16 months) and the B2 medical unit (children from 16 months to 16 years old). During that time, I also travelled to Asia and Latin America, because I enjoy discovering the world and learning about different cultures.
In 2016, I decided to retrain as a physiotherapist. I then decided to continue working with children. I love the energy they bring with them and channelling it into their therapy. And, as they grow and evolve, they stimulate us to adapt and move along with them on their journey.
After my physiotherapy training, I served as a teaching assistant in the physiotherapy department of the Haute Ecole de Santé in Geneva and worked in a general physiotherapy practice.
In September 2020, I joined the Centre qap team where I could work with children again.
I specialised in paediatric neuro-developmental therapy (NDT) according to the Bobath concept (NDT-Bobath – child and baby modules), in Lausanne.
In my free time, I mostly like being outdoors doing sports in the countryside or in the mountains and enjoy other activities depending on the season.
I speak some English and Spanish, and understand German.
