The authors
Without the invaluable help of my friends and, above all, excellent collaborators: Fiorella Cerami (for the first version), Federico del Conte and Riccardo Tomassini from the beginning to today… and Marta Pigliapoco and Tomomi Miyakawa for version 3, which we are all already working on… Suggesta would never have been created nor could it exist.
Massimo Mangialavori
I graduated in Medicine in 1984. An enduring interest in medical anthropology and traditional medicine led to a course of study in Homeopathic Medicine which I began to practice in 1985….
After exploring various approaches that were not entirely satisfactory, I was able to study with great enthusiasm with Dr. Giovanni Marotta in Rome sharing our reflections. In the process, we became dear friends. This work led me to develop an approach called the Method of Complexity in Homeopathic Medicine.
In 1991, I began to give international seminars based on cured cases. Soon after, I began teaching at the Ulmas Association (1993-2014) followed by the Ianua Medica Amiata (2014-2018). Meanwhile, I also taught, beginning in 2000, at CIMI-Koinè International School of Permanent Training in Homeopathic Medicine. Abroad I have taught at the New England Homeopathic Academy (Boston) (1998-2020) and have given seminars in the U.S., England, Scotland, Spain, Germany, Scotland, England, Netherlands, Finland, Switzerland and Japan.
In Bologna and Boston, I taught two separate three-year postgraduate courses (2001-2009). I provided ongoing clinical supervision in Glasgow (2007-2009) and Boston (2011-2021). Collaborations have included F.I.A.M.O. (Italian Federation of Associations and Homeopathic Doctors); Delphi (1996); and Homeovision (2008).
In addition to numerous books on homeopathy, I authored a text on my approach entitled Praxis: A New Method in Homeopathic Medicine and more recently, Materia Medica Clinica, with four published volumes, each detailing a homeopathic family or group of remedies, with more planned for the future. In this work, I was assisted by Krista Heron, John Sobraske and Betty Wood.
In terms of software offerings, I collaborated with the late David Warkentin on ReferenceWorks and MacRepertory, later on a medical record and remedy database with Paolo Barbolini called Consulta (1990), and most recently, Suggesta (2020), a new repertory containing my additions, available on Opus (Zeus) and SHS (Synergy). This project was supported through the efforts of Fiorella Cerami, Federico Del Conte and Riccardo Tomassini.
Until 2014, my homeopathic practice was based in Modena. After moving to Castel del Piano on the slopes of Mount Amiata in 2015, I have divided my practice between Tuscany and Bologna..
