STUDIO MULTIDISCIPLINARY OSTEOPATHY GUIDI: THE PHILOSOPHY AND ITS PROFESSIONALS
My name is Valentina Marie Guidi, I am an independent CDS Osteopath and I have been working in this field for 16 years. Since May 2016, I opened the multidisciplinary Osteopathy Guidi studio with the aim of creating a synergy between professionals with whom I actively collaborate to follow women during the stages of their lives, being specialized in pediatric osteopathy, pregnancy, pre-birth and postpartum. Of course, men, children and adults are also addressed to the practice for different problems.In fact, the philosophy of the practice is based on the care of the person from 0 to 100 years through the resolution and prevention of disorders and diseases.
In the studio we receive by appointment only and there are three therapists.
Valentina Marie Guidi (091 972 82 92, Tue-Fri round-the-clock hours, Mondays present in Pollegio, Via Vecchia Ferrovia 22) as an osteopath for adults and children, specializing in pediatric, pregnancy, pre-partum, postpartum. Annick Bondietti (077 512 22 02, Mondays and Wednesdays continuous hours) as an osteopath for adults and children. Tommaso Barucca (076 687 93 23, Mon-Thurs all day long) as an osteopath for adults and children, specializing in sports. Stefano Benatelli, medical massage therapist (076 479 43 92, Mon-Sat all day long), specializing in sports, medical massage, lymphatic drainage, reflexology and cryotherapy.
Where we are
The multidsciplinary "Osteopathy Guidi" studio is located at 50 Camara Street in Breganzona. By car it is easily accessible from the highway (Lugano Nord exit) in about 5 minutes and from the city center in about 20 minutes. Patients have at their disposal 3 parking lots (n^ A7, B3, B4) labeled "P - Osteopathy Guidi".
By public transportation, the studio can be reached in about 20 minutes from the city center by bus number 3, to and from Breganzona, "Medi" stop, or by bus number 16 to and from Besso-Sorengo-Muzzano, "Camara Scuole" stop.
The studio has a second location in Pollegio, via Vecchia Ferrovia 22, where Valentina Marie Guidi works on Mondays as an osteopath for children and adults.
OSTEOPATHY: some useful information
Osteopathy and the musculoskeletal system
Muscle and/or joint inflammation in the lower limbs (foot, ankle, knee, hip) and upper limbs (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand), pain related to the spine (low back pain, back pain, cervicalgia), inter-costal pain, pain in the sacrum and/or coccyx (sacralgia and/or coccygodynia) following a major trauma (sports, car accident, ...) or during pregnancy and postpartum, headaches of cervical origin or from states such as dental clenching and/or bruxism, decrease in the frequency and intensity of headaches of migraine origin, reduction of pain and stiffness in Parkinson's disease patients.
Osteopathy and the digestive system
General digestive difficulties (heartburn, feeling of abdominal bloating, bowel irregularities such as constipation or dysentery) that can affect other systems such as musculoskeletal pain localized in the innervation areas of the organs deputed to digestion (related to lumbago or back pain), headaches and sleep disorders.
Osteopathy in women
Lumbar pain, cervical pain, headache related to the menstrual cycle , musculoskeletal pain (low back pain, sciatica, back pain, inter-costal pain, cervicalgia) during pregnancy and postpartum. As an osteopath specializing in pregnancy, prepartum, postpartum, and pediatrics, I also treat gastritis, nausea, constipation, and can assign specific exercises in preparation for childbirth and postpartum to improve pelvic and spinal mobility.
Osteopathy in the pediatric setting
Finally, infants may develop deformities of the cranial bones either related to intra-uterine position, during gestation, or related to the dynamics of delivery in which the presentation and timing of the infant's expulsion are not always optimal. These problems can lead to predisposition to various disorders such as: general states of irritability, sleep disturbances, colic, regurgitation even with jet vomiting, torticollis and plagiocephaly (when the head appears "flattened" in some specific areas that can usually be posterior or lateral).
In childhood, we treat problems related to chewing and/or swallowing (e.g., related to the use of certain orthodontic appliances, so in direct collaboration with the dentist and orthodontist), the ears and sinuses can be treated to prevent otitis and sinusitis and often associated headache states, spinal deformities related to scoliosis or scoliotic postures can be treated, flat feet can be prevented where the plantar vault is still present but decreased in height, so-called growing pains can be decreased in intensity by specifically treating the affected joints (often knees and ankles).
Osteopathic treatment: the limits
The scope of Osteopathy excludes all serious anatomical injuries, but also all medical emergencies. Osteopathy cannot heal degenerative diseases, tumors, genetic diseases, infectious diseases, rheumatological diseases, fractures. However, it is possible to turn to Osteopathy to improve some symptoms related to specific surgeries (e.g., in the treatment of scar adhesions after tumor removal) or specific pharmacological treatments that may cause symptoms such as nausea, lack of appetite, digestive difficulties, bowel irregularity, sleep disorders (e.g., patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy or treatments that tend to interfere with the immune system as in some rheumatological diseases).
