Meet Roberto Folleri
Founder & Lead Osteopath
With over two decades of experience in the fitness and wellness industry, my journey has always been driven by a deep fascination with human movement and the body's innate ability to heal. My approach combines the scientific precise of Sport Science and Osteopathy with a hands-on, empathetic style of care.
Having worked across major European hubs like London, Rome, and Cagliari, I eventually settled in Prague to establish Active Osteopathy. My goal is to bridge the gap between clinical treatment and functional performance, ensuring that every client doesn't just feel better, but moves better. Whether you are an athlete looking to optimize performance or someone seeking relief from chronic pain, I am committed to providing flexible, customer-oriented care tailored to your unique needs.
As I continue to evolve my practice, I am proud to be the founder of the first Keope Center in the Czech Republic. This represents a true innovation in wellness, combining my hands-on manual therapy with advanced sound and vibration technology. This synergy is designed to empower your natural healing by targeting the nervous system, fascia, and circulation, while supporting hormonal balance and providing a gentle approach to stress and trauma recovery.

- The ActiveOsteopathy "Approach" -

I am truly glad to help a wide range of people, from elite athletes to those simply looking to live without daily discomfort. At Active Osteopathy, we don’t offer miracles or "magic cracking." Instead, we rely on a deep understanding that the human body is a complex, multi-system entity.
I kindly ask you to dedicate a few minutes to reading the following points, as this information is priceless and can save you a lot of unnecessary pain and frustration. It is essential to understand that our three major internal systems are inseparable and that our history—from the primal trauma of childbirth to your current status—dictates the path we take.
Whether your condition is Traumatic, Chronic, or Disharmonic/Exhausted, our sessions are a precise response to how your nervous system has adapted to life. Below, we explain the essential points of what to expect from your visit.
What to expect
1. The Three Systems: Software, Engine, Frame.
To understand how I work, imagine your health depends on the balance of three essential "systems":
-
Craniosacral (The Software): This is your nervous system and the fluid that nourishes it. It manages your Survival. If the "software" is glitching, it will send the wrong commands to the entire body.
-
Technique: We use light, precise manual contact to release tensions in the skull and spinal cord, calming the nervous system and restoring the natural flow of cerebrospinal fluid.
-
-
Visceral (The Engine): These are your internal organs. If your stomach is tense or your gut is inflamed, you won't just have less energythese tensions will physically "pull" on your spine through the fascia.
-
Technique: Through gentle abdominal and thoracic pressures, we restore mobility to the organs and their supporting ligaments, removing the internal "tug-of-war" that causes back and joint pain.
-
-
Structural (The Frame): Your muscles and bones. This is what you use for Mobility. Often, the pain is felt here, but the cause lies elsewhere.
-
Technique: We utilize specialized mobilization and balancing techniques to realign the joints and muscles, ensuring the "frame" is stable and free to move once the internal causes are resolved.
-
2. The First Trauma: Birth and the "Tight Suit"
Birth is our first great challenge. Often, the compressions endured during delivery make the nervous system feel like a man wearing a suit that is two sizes too small. Since the nervous system controls all autonomic life, visceral functions, and reflexes, this "tight suit" manifests in newborns as reflux, colic, or insomnia. If left unreleased, it carries into adulthood, preventing the integration of Primitive Reflexes.
Example 1: A neonatal reflex that remains unintegrated in an adult causes the body to react to minor stress as if it were a mortal danger. Your neck and shoulder muscles stay perpetually contracted, ready for "fight or flight," draining your energy.
Example 2: Because the Esophageal Fascia ( A Rope) connects the base of your skull directly to your stomach, a "tight" gut creates a "heavy" head. An old skull compression or digestive stress (Reflux/Hiatal Hernia) tightens the fascial "rope" connecting your throat to your mid-back.
The Symptom: Your Neck and Mid-Back muscles stay perpetually locked to resist this internal pull. This creates "knots" and stiffness that no massage can fix because the tension is coming from the inside.
Example 3: Your Pelvic Floor/ Diaphragm ( pee-stopping muscles) is the "bottom" of your internal pressure system. If it is locked or weak, the pressure has nowhere to go but "up" or "out." A blocked Pelvic Floor (due to sedentary life, postpartum, or surgery) creates a back-pressure that congests the Lower Back and hips and forces the spine to compensate.
The Symptom: You experience chronic Lower Back Pain combined with Migraines or Pelvic Congestion (hemorrhoids/varicocele). The body is like a pressurized pipe that is clogged at the bottom, causing the "top" (your head) to throb.
3. Identifying your current "Profile / State"?
To help you effectively, we must identify which of the three clinical profiles your body is currently expressing. This process allows you to evaluate your investment in your health, as it dictates the approach, the techniques, and the frequency of your sessions.
1. TRAUMATIC Profile (Acute/Sub-acute)
-
The Status: A sudden event (fall, accident, or strain) has disrupted a healthy system.
-
The Approach: Fast and mechanical. Since deeper compensations haven't set in yet, we "reset" the trauma to prevent long-term patterns.
-
Timeline: Recovery is usually rapid, typically requiring 1 to 3 sessions.
2. CHRONIC Profile (Long-standing)
-
The Status: The pain has persisted for months or years. Your body has built "armor" and visceral compensations, turning one injury into a complex web of postural and internal imbalances.
-
The Approach: Strategic and multidimensional. We peel away layers of old tension in the organs and fascia to reorganize the system.
-
Timeline: Typically requires 1 session per week for 3 to 6 weeks to start reorganizing the system. Regularity is determined case-by-case, eventually spacing out as the body stabilizes.
3. DISHARMONIC Profile (Systemic Exhaustion)
-
The Status: Biological burnout. The nervous system is locked in "survival mode" (Body Armor), often involving fatigue, anxiety, and digestive issues. The system is "running on empty."
-
The Approach: Forceful maneuvers are useless here. We use a deep craniosacral and neurological approach to first recharge the battery and rebuild from the inside out.
-
Timeline: Patience and a long-term mentality are essential. Expect sessions once a week for 5 to 6 weeks initially. Success depends on a long-term commitment to the process and your dedication to integrating alternative methods, breathing techniques and physical training.
Understanding where you are is the first step toward balance. We don't make miracles, but by respecting these physiological laws, we allow your body to perform its own miracle of repair.
The ActiveOsteopathy "Seal"
Our goal isn't to "fix" you or "adjust" you.
Because you are not broken. You are a masterpiece of biological engineering that has simply started to protect itself. Your pain, your "tight suit," and your "corazza" are not errors; they are the brilliant ways your body has managed to survive your history.
We don't "repair"—we restore. We help you shed the layers of protection that are no longer serving you, allowing you to return to your natural state of abundance, energy, and flow.
You don’t need to be fixed. You just need to be set free.
