Choose the course
that suits you.

Every course combines theory, demonstration of the techniques and guided practice, with Marzia correcting every movement. At the end you receive a certificate of training. All courses are taught in Italian.

How a course works

Small groups,
lots of practice.

In Modena, in a welcoming training centre: one-to-one or in small groups of 2–3 people, on dates we agree together. That way I can follow and correct each of you. Courses are taught in Italian.

01

Theory

The scientific basis of each technique, explained clearly and with practical examples.

02

Demonstration

Watch Marzia perform every movement, step by step, in the sequence of the protocol.

03

Guided practice

Then it’s your turn, with Marzia correcting you individually until the movement is just right.

04

Certificate

At the end you receive a certificate of training in the method and can offer it to your clients straight away.

With Prof. Pier Luigi Rossi, physician and university professor, who curated the scientific module of the online course.

About me

I teach what I practise every day.

I’m Marzia Roncaglia, a professional massage therapist and massage instructor with 24 years of experience. I still treat clients today, and for the past 6 years I have been guiding practitioners and professionals in learning structured manual methods.

During the pandemic I developed and patented the MARFAMA® Method, born from my study and research in neuroscience. I work every day alongside physicians, healthcare professionals and university professors.

"What I bring to the classroom comes from direct knowledge of manual work."

Study

The scientific literature, studied in depth, continuously.

Research

New methods, born from dialogue between disciplines.

Practice

Hands-on work with clients, every day, in the field.
