For over 30 years, the Institute of Integrated Psychosomatics has been working with an innovative clinical model for the care of health and well-being.

Our team consists of psychologists, psychotherapists, osteopaths, posturologists, naturopaths, and yoga teachers who collaborate synergistically, placing the person at the center of care and focusing on their holistic bio-psycho-social well-being.

​

Thanks to research activities, in-depth study, and the collaborative work of a multidisciplinary team, in 2018 we founded Somatic Competence® Yoga as a way to apply the Somatic Competence® model to a body-mind integration practice like yoga.

​

In 2019, we also founded the Somatic Competence® Yoga Training School, Italy’s first advanced training school specifically designed for yoga teachers. Through training modules, workshops, and supervision and mentoring sessions, we provide yoga teachers with a safe environment to analyze challenges faced in class, engage in discussions on complex topics related to student-teacher relationships and hosting structures, and strengthen their knowledge of somatic, relational, and neurobiological aspects of current-day trauma.

​

Somatic Competence® Yoga represents a theoretical-practical knowledge that originated from the clinical experience at the Institute of Integrated Psychosomatics in its work with patients, offering all participants an active journey of self-discovery through the integration of mind and body.
