My qualifications as an osteopath and trainer
I’ve been in clinical practice since 2017. I gained my Diploma in Osteopathy at the International Institute of Advanced Osteopathy (IIOA), in its second cohort (2017–2022).
I had the honour of studying and doing my placements under the supervision of Francisco Fajardo Ruiz and his IIOA team. The Instituto Malagueño de Osteopatía (IMO) also supervised my placements.
D.O. stands for “Diplomado en Osteopatía” (holder of the Diploma in Osteopathy), as my diploma states. Osteopathy and chiropractic are not listed in Spain’s Ley 44/2003, the law that regulates the health professions. My Diploma and Master’s are private qualifications awarded by the IIOA (“títulos propios”), not official university degrees.

How I work
I observe, listen and assess.
Your first osteopathy visit is the Comprehensive Body Assessment. I observe and listen to you, assess your case and do a first treatment.
-
The body as one unit
There is no single action on that isolated area: I look at your body as one single, indivisible unit.
-
Adapted to each person
I always adapt to your needs and respect the healthiest path. Not everyone wants the same thing, and needs change with age.
-
After the session
I give you personalised postural recommendations and exercises to do at home.
Movement is life, and structure governs function. I don’t treat symptoms; I treat people.
Message me to arrange an appointment
Use messages only to arrange the appointment; don’t send diagnoses, reports or medical test results.
Message me or call me: tell me where you are and what kind of visit you need, and we agree the day and the time.
