At the Palazzo della Scala, the young practitioner is shaking up the codes of traditional osteopathy with a combination of rigorous science, psychology and an insatiable quest for knowledge.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Insatiable curiosity<\/h2>\n\n

“Why?” <\/em>That is the question that has driven Mickael Manera since he was a child, and his all-consuming curiosity has taken him from the Berklee College of Music in Boston to his practice in Monte-Carlo. But between music and osteopathy, it was how humans function that truly intrigued him. “I’ve always been fascinated by how people function, whether psychologically, physiologically or bio-mechanically,”<\/em> he says.<\/p>\n\n

His atypical career path has made him a unique practitioner: three years of psychology at the University of Nice Sophia-Antipolis, where he discovered the neuroscience of pain, then five years of osteopathy at the Atman school, not forgetting his diploma as a sports coach. Nine years of studies that contributed towards a holistic vision of health.<\/p>\n\n

A bio-psycho-social approach<\/h2>\n\n

Mickael Manera has made the therapeutic alliance his credo since opening his practice a year and a half ago. “You can’t look at an individual without taking into account their personal history, their previous medical issues, their environment,”<\/em> he explains. This global approach, using a bio-psycho-social model, makes all the difference.<\/p>\n\n

Unlike traditional osteopathy, his method is based on solid scientific foundations. DN4 questionnaires to identify neuropathic pain, Hamilton anxiety scales, mobility tests: each consultation becomes a meticulous investigation.\u00a0 “My aim is for them to come away more informed,”<\/em>\u00a0he stresses. Therapeutic education is not an optional extra, it’s at the heart of his practice.<\/p>\n\n
