The Farfalla occupational therapy center has 20 years of history and is located in Rancate, near Mendrisio. The soul of this family-run practice is Tatiana Mazza, who, with her passion and personal experiences, helps people regain their abilities in daily life, both in private and work settings.

The center is the perfect place for people looking for a family environment, a direct relationship between therapist-patient-physician, to escape from bureaucratic demands by finding in the therapist a reference person, open to dialogue with the treating physicians.
