It was through passion that I completed my training in Osteopathy. I began working in clinics across the Algarve in 2008 and, alongside this, opened my Integrative Medicine practice in Tavira in 2010 — Spiralis — where I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to support and relieve my patients.

My sessions typically last between 45 and 90 minutes, depending on each individual case.

I adapt to each person who seeks my care and to their specific concerns, while always respecting the essential medical foundations that define the scope and limits of osteopathy. In this way, I am fully committed to ensuring your safety throughout treatment.

There are as many ways of practising osteopathy as there are osteopaths, as our hands and levels of perception are all unique.

For this reason, any concerns regarding joint cracking techniques or thrust manipulations can be set aside.

I respect any hesitation or contraindications and most often use what are known as gentle techniques, allowing the body to adapt without strain. I work attentively and in detail with the tissues and fascia, always honouring each body and its individual characteristics.

I have focused my practice on Cranial Osteopathy, as it has provided me with many insights and explanations that have enriched my treatments and brought meaningful results, enabling me to go further into the cranial and fluidic fields.

At Spiralis, you will receive attentive and caring treatment. Although gentle in approach, those who have experienced it know that the work is profoundly effective, reaching all layers of tissue — not only the joints. Therefore, if you are looking for a quick 15-minute “cracking” session, this is not the approach I offer.

It is an honour to continue my professional development throughout my career as an Osteopath, ensuring that I remain up to date with evolving treatment methods in order to respond to your needs in the best possible way.
