I've been a physiotherapist since 2015 and although I've worked in different sectors, musculoskeletal, neurological and mental health are currently my main focus and interest.

I have found inspiration in the mission of caring and delivering more daily, through proximity. And I love growing and getting to know myself as a professional.

I've had the opportunity to see and experience the world from a unique perspective. Having been a girl’s scout, volunteering and going on retreats, doubting my vocation and returning with the confirmation of love for my profession. I bring with me a true and joyful way of connecting with others.

I enjoy quality time with my loved ones and it's in this simplicity that I am the happiest.

I'm a physiotherapist with a postgraduate degree in Strength and Conditioning from the FMH.

I split my time between work and athletics, since I'm in high competition. I'm a 110 and 400 meter hurdler.

My work has been divided between clinical practice in the neuro-musculo-skeletal area and sports, accompanying athletes in various sports such as athletics, tennis, gymnastics and futsal.

What inspires me most in my work is being able to help people have confidence in their bodies to do what is most important to them in their daily lives.

Something that makes me unique and different in my work is my experience as an athlete and how I have often been in each patient's shoes. Understanding that perspective well has allowed me to find the tools to share the best way to perceive, manage and take control of their pain or injury.

I've been a physiotherapist since 2006, married and the mother of 4 children. Apart from my family, my vocation lies in the field of health. Seeing people have a better quality of life and return to their activities is a great daily motivation.

I specialize in the musculoskeletal area, with a strong focus on the shoulder, and I use manual therapy, clinical pilates and therapeutic exercise a lot in my clinical practice. I also teach group clinical pilates classes.

Although I appear to be a calm person, I always like to be on the move!

I feel privileged for the family and friends I have and for being able to work with a spectacular team five minutes from the sea, which I love so much.

Hi, I'm Francisca and I'm a physiotherapist. I graduated from the Escola Superior de Saúde do Alcoitão and completed my degree at the Hanze University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands, where I took a Minor in Sports Physiotherapy.

I've worked in different contexts, from intensive care in the cardio-respiratory area to the rehabilitation of high-performance athletes, but my area of interest is musculoskeletal.

I've always been fascinated by the relationship between mind and body and I believe that physiotherapy enhances the function of both, from prevention to injury rehabilitation. This is what motivates me and makes me want to be better every day.

When I'm not working, I'm most likely on the beach bodyboarding or running. Working here brings together what I love most, being a physiotherapist, just a stone’s throw away from the beach. Could you ask for more?

I'm a physiotherapist by vocation with 20 years' experience in the cardiorespiratory field. At the moment, I divide my time between the hospital - cardiac intensive care unit and cardiology, private practice and teaching.

I've also done voluntary work in Portugal and abroad.

I believe that in physiotherapy, empathy and techniques based on the best scientific evidence are the essential pillars for excellent treatment.

I leave a little bit of myself in each person who passes through my life, through the empathetic way I approach my profession.

I love nature and traveling. Food, music and movies are my addition and therapy!
