Daniel is a highly experienced physiotherapist and osteopath specialising in musculoskeletal rehabilitation and pain management. He graduated in 2012 with a Physiotherapy degree from Tor Vergata University in Rome and has since worked in both hospital and multidisciplinary clinic environments, treating conditions such as neck pain, back pain, neurological disorders, and orthopedic rehabilitation.
During his time in Rome, Daniel served as a sports physiotherapist for APD Olympia, a fifth-tier football team, where he focused on injury prevention, athlete recovery, and performance enhancement.
In 2018, he completed a first-class honours Master’s degree in Osteopathy at the European School of Osteopathy (ESO) in Maidstone, UK. Dedicated to ongoing professional development, Daniel has also gained additional qualifications in kinesiology and sports taping, western medical acupuncture, and global postural re-education (with Professor Philippe E. Souchard).
Today, Daniel provides expert physiotherapy and osteopathy care across clinics in Maidstone, Ashford, and Folkestone (Kent). He specialises in treating musculoskeletal pain, sports injuries, joint stiffness, and chronic pain, with a holistic approach that focuses on identifying root causes. His treatments combine hands-on therapy, manual adjustments, and exercise rehabilitation to support long-term recovery and wellbeing.
Alongside his clinical work, Daniel teaches Clinical Neurology and Manual Techniques at the ESO’s International Department, mentoring future osteopaths and sharing his expertise in neurological rehabilitation and manual therapy.
Outside of work, Daniel is a proud husband and father of two boys. He stays active through calisthenics, rock climbing, swimming, and weightlifting.
