Osteopata specializzato in ambito pediatrico
Every year I visit thousands of children and, for years now, the 95% from my first visits is composed of infants of less than 3 months of life.
Once solved any issues for which parents have turned to me, I accompany the children in their growth by ensuring their miglior sviluppo psicomotorio, posturale e del sonno.
In 2018 I founded Yule – Centro specializzato in ambito materno-infantile e pediatricoin which I work daily with a medical team collaborativo, giovane e dinamico.

The three principles I believe in
Professionalism
Listening to parents and effectively solving the neonatal problems for which they come to the studio is crucial.
Expertise
There can be no professionalism without competence. For this reason, I specialise in neonatal care and work with all the professionals at my centre on a daily basis.
Passion
Il miglior modo per lavorare bene, è farlo con il cuore e con il sorriso.
Let me tell you a story
Many people ask me:
"Do you really treat children only a few days old?"
To tell you the truth, for me a 6-month-old baby is now a big boy!
I am so used to seeing babies only a few days old that, as a joke, I call children from 10 months onwards 'boys'.
But where this passion comes from that led me to specialise in paediatrics and especially neonatology?
Let me try to explain it quickly.
My osteopathic 'career' started by treating not only babies but also adults, sportsmen, the elderly, etc;
It is precisely from my experience in treating numerous adults that my passion for treating babies has grown.
Why are you wondering!?
Because every time I treated an adult patient I used to go back to backwards traumas/falls who might have influenced posture and that they could concur in the reported problems.
For example, I evaluated as a ankle injury (never treated and resolved) could have influenced an asymmetry of the lower limb, a resulting 'unbalance' of the pelvis and back.
Step by step, I put together all the puzzle pieces and acted accordingly to resolve the patient's painful symptoms, also improving his posture.
But the longer I went on, the more I wondered...
''Why solve a postural problem that has been created over the years when I can foster the best motor and postural development of the child from birth?
That is why I decided to be guided by my work passion and specialising in neonatology and paediatrics.
Laurea in Osteopatia e Specializzazione in osteopatia pediatrica
I obtained my training in 3 Italian and European universities.
- International College of Osteopathic Medicine (ICOM);
- Italian Academy of Osteopathic Medicine (AIMO);
- British College of Osteopathic Medicine (BCOM) in London where I did an intensive paediatric and adult internship
In addition, during my academic training I did a Specialisation multi-year in paediatric and neonatal settings.
The training offered the maximum standards indicated by the documents international:
- FORE, Forum for Osteopathic Regulation in Europe,
- FEO, European Federation of Osteopaths,
- WHO, World Health Organisation.
But this is not enough to call myself a paediatric osteopath
Continuing specialisation
You never stop learning and improving professionally.
For this reason, before creating advanced training courses myself, I always carried out numerous specialisation courses and updating including:
- Paediatric Osteopathy and Obstetrics
- Paediatric Osteopathy and Orthodontics
- Neuropsychomotor developmental disorders in children
- Paediatric osteopathy and neuropsychiatry
- Manipolazione avanzata della Laringe
- Many more...
Consulente professionale in allattamento
Dopo una lunga formazione e migliaia di ore di tirocinio, a gennaio 2026 sono diventato consulente professionale in allattamento.
Questo mi permette di integrare le mie competenze da osteopata pediatrico insieme a quelle di esperto in allattamento per solve tempestivamente problemi di suzione e allattamento (dolore al seno, scarsa crescita del bambino, ecc.) che lo compromettono.
Dichiarazione di Conflitto di Interesse
In qualità di consulente in allattamento sono anche fondatore del brand DrSilva®, che commercializza prodotti per mamma e bambino. Mi impegno affinché le mie raccomandazioni professionali in allattamento siano formulate esclusivamente sulla base delle evidenze scientifiche e del miglior interesse di madre e bambino, indipendentemente da qualsiasi interesse commerciale.
Consulente certificato del sonno infantile
Grazie alle mie conoscenze medico scientifiche (in ambito osteopatico, allattamento e non solo) e all’esperienza acquisita nel trattare migliaia di neonati, integro gli studi sul sonno infantile in una visione multidisciplinare a 360 gradi.
In questo modo riesco a supportare i genitori offrendo loro suggerimenti mirati ed efficaci per migliorare il sonno del bambino, dalla nascita fino ai 2 anni di età, mese dopo mese.
Docente per Scuole di Osteopatia e Corsi specialistici
Grazie a tutta l’esperienza maturata in ambito pediatrico, ho collaborato con scuole di Osteopatia e creo personalmente corsi di advanced training.
