Acupuncture Physician, Massage Therapist
Diploma in Chinese Medicine, TuiNa and Qi Gong
Scuola Tao Lugano
Acupuncture Physician and massage therapist specializing in Chinese Medicine and Craniosacral Biodynamics, I hold individual sessions and training courses.
After graduating in Literature and Philosophy in 2005, my journey into the world of oriental cultures and body therapies began by studying Yoga and Vedic Chanting, Shiatsu massage, Western Massage Therapy and Chinese TuiNa Massage Therapy and with it Chinese Medicine, which it still remains my main reference theory for understanding the body and maintaining health.
I have continued to study in recent years, completing my degree in acupuncture in Switzerland and furthering my research between Italy, Switzerland and England.
The cultivation of health practices such as Qi Gong, Yoga and meditation has played a very important role in my training as a therapist and lead me to become interested in the study of Craniosacral Biodynamics, of which I have become an operator and teacher. In this context I have deepened the study of embryology and pre-perinatal psychology by meeting European and American teachers.
MY SPECIALTIES
BOEL METHOD: A REVOLUTIONARY APPROACH TO VISUAL WELL-BEING
​
If you are looking for a safe, natural, and effective method to take care of your eyesight, the Boel Method could be the right solution for you.
The Boel Acupuncture Method is an innovative technique that harnesses the body’s natural ability to regenerate itself to support eye health. It is particularly recommended for the treatment of degenerative and progressive eye conditions, such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinitis pigmentosa, and optic neuropathies.
WOMENS' HEALTH
​
Acupuncture and Chinese herbology offer a comprehensive, holistic approach to women's health, addressing infertility, menopause, and various gynecological disorders by focusing on restoring the body's natural balance and promoting the smooth flow of qi and blood. For infertility, acupuncture is often utilized to reduce stress, regulate hormone levels, and increase blood circulation to the uterus and ovaries, which can enhance egg quality and improve IVF success rates. Similarly, Chinese herbal formulas—such as Dang Gui (Angelica sinensis) and Shu Di Huang (Rehmannia)—are tailored to the individual to nourish the body, support endometrial health, and increase pregnancy rates. During menopause, acupuncture acts as a non-hormonal alternative to alleviate hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, and mood fluctuations. By addressing the underlying patterns of disharmony rather than just surface symptoms, this integrated approach provides sustainable support for reproductive health, menstrual cycle regulation, and general well-being throughout different life stages.

TREATMENTS FOR STRESS, ANXIETY AND INSOMNIA
​
Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine are effective approaches for treating stress, anxiety, and insomnia by restoring the body’s energetic balance. Through the insertion of fine needles into specific points along the meridians, acupuncture helps calm the mind, regulate the nervous system, and promote deeper, more restful sleep. At the same time, Chinese herbs are carefully selected based on an individual diagnosis to nourish the Heart and Liver, harmonize the Shen (spirit), and reduce internal agitation. This therapeutic combination aims not only to relieve symptoms but also to address their root cause, supporting long-term well-being and emotional balance.
