With a solid educational background, I hold a double title in osteopathy. 

I completed a rigorous five-year university course, earning a Diploma in Italy, through the International College of Osteopathic Medicine (ICOM). 

This comprehensive program provided in-depth knowledge in areas such as Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology, Biomechanics, and extensive practical training, including over 1500 hours of clinical experience. During this time, my focus was on Structural Osteopathy, Visceral Osteopathy, Cranio-Sacral Osteopathy, and Indirect Treatment Approach.

To further enhance my expertise, I pursued a Master's degree in Osteopathy in the UK through the Kington University. This intensive two-year program correspond to a Level 7 FHEQ, and honed my skills in Differential Diagnosis, Clinical and Critical thinking, and Patient Management. 

The combination of Italian and UK qualifications equips me with a broad and well-rounded approach to patient care.

In addition to my osteopathic qualifications, I also hold a diploma as a Massage Therapist. Through a two-year comprehensive course with KERN School, I have acquired expertise in various massage modalities, including Traditional Massage, Sports Massage, Bandage and Functional Bandage Techniques, Kinesio Taping, Cupping Therapy, and Lymphatic Drainage Technique.

I immediately fell in love with osteopathy when I had my first osteopathic treatment at the age of 10.

I vividly remember stepping into the studio for my lower back issue and envisioning myself behind the desk, eagerly waiting for patients to arrive. This thought brought a smile to my face every single time.

However, my journey towards a career in osteopathy was not a straightforward one. Prior to that, I had graduated as an Electrical Engineer, and I initially believed that my interest in the human body and manual therapies would remain a fulfilling hobby on the side.

To my surprise, as I delved deeper into the study and exploration of osteopathy, I found it increasingly fascinating. Initially, I had no idea about the breadth and depth of the osteopathic profession, but it turned out to be the best decision I ever made.

What I truly appreciate and admire about this profession is its ability to help people improve their well-being. The most captivating aspect, which I discovered along the way, is that to an outside observer, the touch of an osteopath might seem almost magical.

However, the essence of this profession lies in its understanding of medical science. The goal is to remove the obstacles the body faces due to specific conditions, enabling the body's innate self-healing process to unfold.

The versatility of osteopathy lies in its ability to employ both gentle and firm techniques, adapting to the needs of each individual. This aspect, in addition to its inherent fascination, makes the profession truly remarkable. It is worth noting that these types of treatments are suitable for patients of all ages, ranging from newborns and babies to teenagers, adults, and the elderly.

When I'm not working, I dedicate most of my time to outdoor activities such as inline skating, golf, and rock climbing. I thrive on challenging myself and clearing my mind. Alternatively, I enjoy capturing precious moments with my camera."

Last but not least I would like to mention and thanks both my mum and dad for having supported me through this wonderful journey which would have not been possible otherwise, and my ex classmates and professors now friends and colleagues who has helped me grow and thrive to become the osteopath I am today. Thank you.

Being at the beginning of my career I think and believe that is extremely important to have a board and specialised knowledge, regarding the different type of patients and condition that I can face every day.

At present, I am actively pursuing additional courses and studies to further enhance my practice, expand my knowledge, and stay abreast of the latest advancements in the field.

Osteopathy is classified as a complementary medicine, it is aimed to complete patients course of care and wellness. Is a distinct branch of healthcare that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal disorders and their impact on overall health. Developed in the late 19th century, osteopathy takes a holistic approach, considering the interconnectedness of the body's structure and function.

Osteopathy is built upon four core principles that guide its practice:

1. The body is a unit: Osteopathy recognizes that the body functions as a whole, with all its systems and structures interrelated and interdependent. It emphasizes the importance of considering the body as an integrated unit in diagnosis and treatment.
2. The body has self-healing mechanisms: Osteopathy acknowledges that the body has inherent self-regulatory and self-healing mechanisms. Osteopathic practitioners aim to facilitate and support these mechanisms to restore health and balance.
3. Structure and function are interrelated: Osteopathy emphasizes the interrelationship between the body's structure and its optimal function. Any disruption or imbalance in the musculoskeletal system can impact overall health and well-being.
4. Treatment is based on individuality: Osteopathy recognizes that each person is unique. Osteopathic practitioners tailor their treatment approaches to suit the individual needs of the patient, taking into account their specific condition, medical history, and lifestyle.

The final goal is to provide the best management of each and any specific condition.

Osteopathy operates on the principles of holistic healthcare, recognising the interconnectedness of the body's structure, function, and self-healing mechanisms. Through a range of manual techniques, osteopathic practitioners work to restore balance, improve mobility, optimise and maintain function. By addressing the underlying causes of musculoskeletal disorders and promoting the body's innate healing abilities, osteopathy offers a unique approach to achieving and maintaining health and well-being.

Osteopathy works by addressing the underlying causes of musculoskeletal disorders and promoting the body's self-healing mechanisms. Here's how it operates:

• Assessment and diagnosis: Osteopathic practitioners begin by conducting a comprehensive assessment, including a detailed medical history, physical examination, and palpation of tissues and structures. This helps identify areas of dysfunction, imbalance, or restrictions in the body.
• Treatment and intervention: Based on the assessment findings, the osteopath devises an individualised treatment plan. Through manual techniques, they aim to restore balance, improve mobility, and optimise function in the affected areas. Treatment may also include advice on exercise, posture, ergonomics, and lifestyle modifications.
• Integration and collaboration: Osteopathy recognises the value of collaboration with other healthcare professionals. Osteopaths may work alongside physicians, physical therapists, or other specialists to ensure comprehensive care and address the broader aspects of the patient's health.
• Prevention and maintenance: Osteopathy emphasises preventive care and patient education. Osteopaths provide guidance on self-care strategies, exercises, and lifestyle modifications to help patients maintain optimal health, prevent future injuries, and manage chronic conditions.
