PANCAFI _ RAGGI METHOD

The Raggi Method with the Pancafit Technique is a postural corrective program that is mostly based on the concepts of the French “Mezieres Method”. The method’s use of “decompensated postures” and corrective exercises directly address the root causes of body compensations and imbalances that arise over time secondary to trauma, injury, pain, and stress. The program also incorporates the concepts of several postural rehabilitative methods including physical therapy.

Professor Daniele Raggi from Italy, is a physiotherapist, kinesiologist, and a certified Meziere Method practitioner. He developed the Raggi Method of global non-compensated stretching through the Pancafit technique. The method aims to affect the muscle, fascia and connective tissue chains and facilitates the release of the diaphragm through specific breathing techniques. Pancafit is a tool that aids in the method. 

When the technique of global non-compensated muscular stretching and the diaphragmatic breathing are carried out rigorously, the body can begin to show other physical reactions. It is as if the cells of our body start to remember the old traumas and pain that had remained fixed in the tissue and in the mind, which now accepts to remember these once forgotten things. This condition constitutes the so called “backwards path” which frees the muscles and the joints definitively. In this way, people regain health, the will to move, and the freedom to live pain free.

Pancafit® improves people’s posture and physical condition thanks to its action on tensions fascial planes and muscular stiffness.
