The need for an integrated approach
In recent years, research in various areas has clearly shown important correlations between all the systems that regulate health and behaviour; for example, an inflammatory state can always be observed (often in a cause-effect vicious circle) in presence of various issues such as anxiety, depression, dermatitis, intolerances, etc.
Headaches, chronic pain and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) – just to list some examples – are among the most difficult problems to manage and tackle without an integrative approach that addresses the emotional, mental, self-awareness, physical (such as activation, joint release, physiological recovery), nutritional and anti-inflammatory spheres too.
Human experience always involves all systems, at all levels: from the reactions that occur in a cell, through to the nervous system and to the most complex behaviours.
That is why a comprehensive, inclusive and integrative approach needs to be developed.
When a person opens the door and walks into your study, they always do so with a specific problem to tackle and with a number of other issues or factors that cause it or, at the very least, support it.
This could be physical or emotional pain, a state of anxiety, trauma, an allergy or a debilitating illness...
They may have a specific cause in mind, but our job is to see the whole picture.
Example 1
To help an anxious person, for example, it is essential to analyse and act various levels: their brain might be overexcited by social networks, they may lack certainty and predictable perspectives, perhaps they feel trapped in their body- which is more often the cause rather than the consequence of these situations, they may engage in pro-inflammatory and dysfunctional nutrition, have to account for epigenetics, allostatic load and more.
Example 2
Even what might seem like a ‘simple’ sprained ankle is always linked to a significant, if not even traumatic, emotional event. Emotional memories stay active in the background if not resolved, feeding off each-other’s pain and inflammation. Negatively dwelling on it after an accident can alter identity and the body map; athletic competitions may become relational conflict and so on.

These levels provide a way to analyse and then work on all the systems involved:
- Links between Mental-Postural-Motor Flows
- Brain Networks’ emotional and affective processes
- Circadian rhythms, physical activity and other basic adjustments
- Inflammation and psychosomatic issues
- Epigenetics for profound change
- The 3 levels of Neural Plasticity
- Nutrition and Metabolism of Mental and Body Processes
- Bowel - Microbiome – Brain Axis
- Primary social patterns and Evolutionary Relationships
