About Me

In the studio or in the classroom, a deep passion for this “manual art” shines through every moment


The focus of this work is to assess a patient, which means interacting with a person, with their struggles, their goals, and their own personality!!!

An aphorism that has always stayed with me says:

Born on June 29, 1978 in Milan, to parents who passed on to me the original imagination of Tuscany and the work ethic typical of Veneto.

I attended the University of Pavia, where I immediately began collaborating with the Italian Superior Institute of the Spine (I.S.I.C.O. - Milan, Don Gnocchi Institute) at the Vigevano branch, under the supervision of Dr. Stefano Negrini.

This experience allowed me to become familiar right away with modern physiatry concepts related to the spine, actively taking part in drafting rehabilitation programs for the treatment and prevention of spinal disorders in children and adolescents, with and without the use of braces or corrective orthoses.

During my university studies (completed in 2003), thanks to a professor from Turin, I learned notions of an osteopathic nature, and I immediately realized how fascinating it was to be able to interpret the human body through a method that was completely unknown to me, but which was beginning to take its place among my passions. So, after consulting my reference professor, I enrolled at the Centre pour l'Etude, la Recherche et la Diffusion Osteopathiques (C.E.R.D.O.) in Rome, under the authoritative direction of Maurice Audouard, where I successfully completed my studies in 2009.

My professional turning point came in 2005, when I decided to move for work to Milan as a freelancer, joining a medical services company, TakeCare S.R.L., working alongside physicians during their consultations, in order to provide clients of various centers (for example GetFit, Fitness First, American Conturella, Virgin Active) with a musculoskeletal screening with particular attention to osteopathic principles.

Osteopathy also gave me the opportunity to gain experience in the sports field: in 2009 I worked with Vigevano Calcio (Serie D - professionals), and in the 2008/2009 two-year period I was involved in the world of two wheels, working with the Ducati Santhià Team in the Italian Ducati One-Make Speed Championship (SuperStock and Open categories - circuits Mugello, Franciacorta, Vallelunga, Magione and Varano), managing the rehabilitation side for the riders.

Still in the motorcycle world, I can claim participation as an osteopath with the Echo CRS Team in the 2009 Superbike Championship (for the Italian races only), overseeing the physical management of rider B. Parkes.

The decade from 2009 to 2019 proved to be very important for my work both in Vigevano and in Milan, to the point that the latter saw the beginning of my career as an Osteopathy Lecturer, first at TCIO (Milan), and in the following years at SioTema (Turin/Florence), then Cromon/Educam (Rome), Swiss School IOA (Milan/Lugano), and the New Master Training Company (Rome).

Today this professional focuses on Cranio-Cervico-Mandibular Disorders, extending to headaches and related postural adaptation issues.

The current working approach is SOT (Sacro-Occipital Technique), which synthesizes the concepts of chiropractic and osteopathy in the manual treatment of back pain and sciatica, as well as in the prevention of relapses. The SOT technique is a truly global approach to the patient, restoring balance at the vertebral, postural, neuromuscular, and energetic levels. Developed by Dr. DeJarnette, an American chiropractor, this SOT method is applicable to all types of patients thanks to its "gentleness" (pregnancy, obesity, elderly patients, and those not suitable for structural techniques), and is notable for its effectiveness and clinical precision.

Since 2013 this professional has been an international consultant for TecnoBody, a leading company in the field of proprioception in the medical sector, providing support to medical staff in managing patients in combination with technological protocols. In 2015, this professional was appointed Head of the International Academy for China, India, and Saudi Arabia.

Since 2017 there has been a collaboration with the School of Cranio-Mandibular Rehabilitation (click here) to share an osteopathic approach to this specific specialization of manual therapy, under the guidance of Scientific Director Dr. Valerio Palmerini, PT, PhD. In addition to classroom teaching, this professional is also the author of online courses (blended format) focused on gnathology, and on approaches to the cranium and the spine.

Since 2020 there has been a collaboration with Accademia Osteopatia (Busto, Bergamo, Brescia) (click here) in the role of Lecturer in Structural Osteopathy and Guided Clinical Practice, and with Accademia AITOP (click here) as a lecturer for post-graduate courses in the field of manual therapy.

Alongside an endless passion for this work, there is also a love for cinema, friends, and sports, with a particular preference for boxing above all, without ever forgetting two wheels.

Currently appointments are available in Vigevano and Milan.
