Posturologist and injury rehabilitation specialist
Gabriel Montagnini Pellicer
Who I am
I’m Gabriel Montagnini. I’ve felt a calling to help others since I was a child. Sport has always been part of my life and has shaped how I understand movement and rehabilitation.
I view the body as a complex, integrated system. I take a holistic approach, considering how posture, movement, energy and emotions interact in each person. In postural assessment, I pay particular attention to how the sensory system gathers information from the body and the environment, and how the nervous system integrates it to adjust posture and movement.
I start by listening to how each person experiences their injury, what limits them and what they want to regain. What they tell me, alongside what I observe during the assessment, helps guide their rehabilitation.
“The best part of supporting someone through recovery is seeing them get back to doing what made them feel alive.”
My training
CAFyD
CAFyD is the Spanish acronym for Physical Activity and Sport Sciences. This field studies human movement and how to plan exercise and training.
Integrated Posturology®
This approach considers posture alongside the nervous and sensory systems. I look at how information from vision, the inner ear and our points of contact with the ground relates to the way we balance and move.
Training course in neurocognitive rehabilitation, neuroscience and therapeutic exercise
I draw on neuroscience to understand how the brain and peripheral nerves communicate with muscles and joints. I assess strength, sensation and coordination to guide therapeutic exercise in rehabilitation for injuries and other conditions.
Training course in rib cage biomechanics
The course focuses on how the ribs and diaphragm move and how pressure inside the chest changes during inhalation and exhalation. Examining the relationship between biomechanics and breathing helps me choose exercises.
What I do
I share cases and reflections on posture, movement and the neurosensory system. I also create training materials for physiotherapists.
