Blog
In my daily professional practice, I often talk to colleagues and answer patients' questions on topics relating to the Voice, Osteopathy and Singing.
I realized that these topics generate great interest and deserve to be shared with a wider audience. This is why I decided to open this space in my blog: to make this precious information accessible to everyone, presented in a clear and direct way.
Here you will find articles and reflections that I hope will enrich your knowledge and answer your curiosities in these fascinating and complex fields.
