Helping you improve movement, and resilience through hands on osteopathy and functional rehabilitation. Expert support for pain relief, injury prevention, and confident return to the activities you love.
Hi, I’m Paulo, an Osteopath with a lifelong passion for movement, well being, and helping people feel their best.
With degrees in Osteopathy and Kinesiology, and over 25 years of movement coaching through Capoeira, I bring both a clinical and practical understanding of how the body moves, adapts, and recovers.
I also hold additional qualifications in Cranial Sacral Therapy, Paediatric Cranial Sacral Therapy, Orthopedic Sports Massage, Advanced Manipulative Therapy, and Dry Needling.
My focus is to offer supportive, personalised osteopathic care that helps you reduce pain, restore confidence, and return to the activities you love.
The body thrives on movement. When it becomes restricted, whether by pain, injury, or fear everything else starts to break down.
That’s why my approach centres on restoring natural movement patterns, rebuilding confidence, and helping you trust your body again.
Personalised osteopathic care for every stage of movement.

For both recent and chronic injuries and conditions.
Back pain, neck pain, shoulder issues, hip or knee pain, headaches, nerve irritation, and more.

Building resilience so your body can perform and stay injury-free. From sports injuries to everyday strains.

Restoring natural movement so your body feels freer, lighter, and more capable.

Improving how your body supports itself during work, daily life, and training.

Gentle, effective treatment for pelvic pain, back discomfort, and postural changes during and after pregnancy.

Supporting your overall health, movement, and energy through hands-on treatment and guided movement strategies.
Real experiences from patients who trusted my work and regained movement, comfort, and confidence.

His approach combines hands-on treatment with dry needling, and he takes the time to really understand what’s going on. What sets him apart is the practical, science-based advice he gives alongside treatment — posture, mobility, stretching, training, and making daily work habits more body-friendly. Honest, straightforward, and highly recommended. Thanks Paulo!Posted on Martijn van der Riet3 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
