about me
I'm Davide Fiori, a human movement specialist with an MSc in Sport Science and a diploma in osteopathy (D.O.).For over ten years, I've worked with executives, entrepreneurs and professionals, particularly those connected with the European institutions in Brussels, helping them regain mobility, strength and confidence in their bodies.Training with international experts in the United States, Canada and across Europe led me to develop Functional Reset, a method that combines functional assessment, movement retraining and exercise, and has already helped over 600 people.Today, I put this approach into practice through Functional Vibes, the business I founded and run, with studios in Brussels and Tuscany. I also teach it to other professionals through Human Function Restoration (HFR).My belief is simple: before asking our bodies to do more, we need to help them function better.

The Method
The human body is designed to move. Yet modern life exposes us to sedentary habits and an increasingly limited range of physical stimuli. The abilities we stop using — mobility, stability and movement control — gradually decline.We often attribute to ageing what may also be the result of years of inactivity. It's not just the passage of time that matters, but the stimuli we give our bodies along the way. Our bodies constantly adapt to the information they receive. By changing that information, we can change how they adapt.Just as a house needs solid foundations before it can be expanded, our bodies need to regain essential functions before taking on new challenges.If we experience pain after a game of tennis or five-a-side football, the sport itself isn't necessarily the problem. Often, it's the gap between what we ask our bodies to do and what we've prepared them to handle.Functional Reset was developed to bridge this gap, rebuilding the foundations of movement so we can return to living fully and enjoying the sports we love with strength, freedom and confidence.The method is built around four pillars:
01 · Breathing & core activation
03 · Essential mobility
02 · Foot function
04 · Movement hubs
Every programme begins with an assessment of each person's abilities, helping us identify where to focus and how to measure progress.

The body reclaimed
How to break free from pain and unlock the natural strength
your body has always carried within it.
We tend to see stiffness, pain and loss of mobility as inevitable consequences of ageing. But how much of what we attribute to getting older actually comes down to the way we live and move?In The Body Reclaimed, I explore this question and explain how our bodies can regain abilities we thought we'd lost, through a better understanding of movement and the stimuli they need.A book for anyone who wants to stop seeing physical decline as inevitable and rediscover the strength, freedom and confidence to move again.

my studios
Functional Vibes
From theory to practice, every day.Functional Vibes is the company I founded to bring movement science into people's everyday lives.At our studios in Brussels and Pontedera, Tuscany, we help professionals, entrepreneurs and anyone looking to regain mobility, strength and confidence in their bodies through personalised programmes combining functional assessment, movement retraining and exercise.An environment where every journey begins with the individual, not a one-size-fits-all programme.
corporate wellness
The Body Logic Programme
Performance starts with the body.Movement, breathing, sleep and daily habits send signals to our bodies, influencing energy, mental clarity and stress management.Changing these inputs creates new opportunities for adaptation, even in demanding professional environments with intense schedules and responsibilities.This vision inspired The Body Logic Programme: six interactive workshops combining movement science, neuroscience and physiology, translating research into practical strategies for wellbeing and professional performance.Already delivered to international organisations such as White & Case, Cooley and Latham & Watkins, the programme is available in person or online, as standalone workshops or tailored programmes.
professional education
Human Function Restoration
From theory to practice. Rebuilding movement from the ground up.Academic training doesn't always provide the practical tools needed to help sedentary people, or those with functional limitations or persistent pain, move with confidence again.Human Function Restoration (HFR) bridges this gap, teaching movement and healthcare professionals how to assess and rebuild essential movement functions using the principles of Functional Reset.20 modules · 30 hours of training · 20 hours of practical placement at Functional Vibes studios in Italy or Belgium.Designed for movement coaches, kinesiologists, physiotherapists, osteopaths and other movement professionals.
