Filipe is amazing! Having been to several different Osteopaths before Filipe, it was a night and day difference. Filipe's approach seems so natural and impactful. He truly has gifted knowledge, senses, and hands. Plus, he made me feel more personally and physically comfortable than any other osteopath I have seen. I highly recommend Filipe to any and everyone!

I was fortunate to have a consultation with Filipe recently, and I was deeply impressed by his professionalism and dedication. From the moment I walked into his office, I felt welcomed and at ease. Filipe took the time to get to know me, understand my needs and concerns, and conduct a thorough assessment while explaining everything clearly and concisely.
The treatment itself was exceptional. Filipe has magic hands, and his technique is impeccable. He was able to significantly relieve my pain and discomfort. Additionally, he provided me with valuable advice on how to improve my posture and prevent future injuries.
What impressed me the most about Filipe was his passion for osteopathy. He is clearly devoted to his craft and genuinely committed to helping his patients reach their full potential. He is a true master in his field, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and caring osteopath. Thank you!

An excellent professional. I have always turned to Filipe for both the treatment and prevention of physical dysfunctions, and the results have been consistently outstanding in overcoming pain and discomfort. Interestingly, after receiving treatment for lower back pain caused by two herniated discs, the holistic and harmonious approach Filipe used not only relieved my back pain but also unexpectedly resolved a parallel issue with my eye, where my pupil had been reacting poorly to sunlight.

I had a severe lower back issue, along with a misalignment in the same region and other parts of my body. For many years, I relied on painkillers and anti-inflammatories to manage the discomfort. However, after discovering Filipe’s work and attending regular sessions at his clinic, all of my problems were resolved. Now, I only return for maintenance. Filipe applies modern osteopathic techniques, providing both confidence and visible results in a short time. I fully trust his work and highly recommend him.

Filipe Gonçalves is an extraordinary professional. I am incredibly grateful to him for saving me from a condition that could have become a serious issue in the future. During a routine appointment to maintain my overall well-being, Filipe’s keen attention to detail led him to discover a mass in my left thigh. He immediately advised me to see a doctor, which led to the diagnosis of an atypical lipoma measuring 14.5 cm within my leg muscle. I underwent surgery to have it removed, leaving behind a large scar on the back of my thigh. Filipe, with his expert scar massage techniques, managed to significantly reduce its appearance in a short amount of time. Now, it is barely noticeable. Truly fantastic! I cannot thank him enough. As a person, he also nourishes the soul. Thank you, Filipe.

Filipe has been treating my whole family for the past couple of years with his “magic hand”. Whether it be sports injury or wear and tear from aging. He has been fantastic not just treating acute topic pain, but digs all the way down to the root cause of it and treats it. I’ve been blessed to have met him.

Filipe is my go to Osteopath! He has helped me personally with my frozen shoulder and back issues. I've been in his expert hands for years and I've been referring all my friends to him as well. He will question the source of the issue going well beyond the pain or discomfort you're feeling! Besides his amazing skills he has an incredible ability to connect with people. He speaks English as well!

Filipe is an amazing osteopath! I was almost completely immobilised with back pain and after the first visit I was almost pain-free. A few more visits resulted in lasting relief. He has helped most members of my family too. Filipe has an uncanny ability to find problems that you might not even know you have, for example childhood traumas or injuries. He focusses on the entire body and, working on physical and energetic levels, he treats not just the symptoms but the root causes. I can't recommend Filipe enough!

Fantastic at treating scars! I had an old scar on the tip of my index finger that affected nerve connections, and it improved significantly after just one session! Highly recommend.

Honestly, after so many years of limping, going through "physical therapy" sessions without success, my self-esteem was at rock bottom due to the poor health conditions I had been experiencing in my leg and hip. Then I was told about Filipe. After being recommended to see him, I can say that after just one session, I had never seen or even imagined that someone could have hands like his. I won’t say I feel 100% yet, because that wouldn’t be true, but I am certain that in his hands, my quality of life will improve dramatically. Without a doubt, I recommend him, and without a doubt, I will return for more “tough love.” A simple "thank you" is not enough to express my gratitude for this man. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

There are no words to express my gratitude for all the treatment I’ve received so far. Years of searching for help to improve my quality of life, all without success—until now! Yes, it is possible with the "guru" of osteopaths. From being able to bend my knee, which I hadn’t been able to do for years, to the significant relief from my severe lower back pain that left me completely unmotivated, and even the restructuring of my C-section scar, which had fibrosis and caused discomfort whenever I moved. All of this was resolved in just one session! I will definitely continue with the sessions—he has an undeniable natural gift.

I am grateful for the wonderful work he did on my scars. I don’t have pictures, but if I did, I would post them. I’ve already recommended him to several people. He is truly an excellent professional. Grateful also for all the guidance. See you soon.

I highly recommend him without a shadow of a doubt. I don’t know whether to call it osteopathy or pure magic! After 3-4 weeks of intense pain and discomfort, multiple sessions of shiatsu, physiotherapy, various medications, and two hospital visits for a lower back issue, it took Filipe just over 45 minutes to deliver unbelievable results—not only for my main complaint but also for other issues caused by poor posture, stress, and past accidents. More than an osteopath, he has become my hero! Thank you so much, Filipe Gonçalves. See you again very soon! Big hug!

My story with Filipe is truly incredible. At 49 years old, after having undergone spinal surgery, I suffered from chronic pain for many years. I went to see Filipe when I woke up one day unable to move due to a misaligned bone in my spine. To my surprise, after just three minutes of working on my body, Filipe identified that my coccyx was out of place due to a trauma I had at the age of 7 or 8. He asked me if no one had ever pointed this out to me before. I immediately remembered that at that age, I was hit by a car. Sadly, I had spent over 40 years with an issue that no one had ever identified—so frustrating! Filipe adjusted my body, and for the first time that I can remember, I woke up without pain. This story may sound surreal, and if someone had told me about it, I don’t know if I would have believed it. But for me, it is a fact. My posture has changed, I wake up without lower back pain, I no longer need to "warm up" my joints when I get out of bed in the morning, and I take my first steps pain-free. I am immensely grateful to Filipe for literally changing my life. Thank you so much, and I wish you continued success in your outstanding work. I highly recommend him.

I started seeing Dr.Filipe a year ago. I feel that I have new body now: much more flexible, with EVEN LEGS! Initially I came for my chronic back pain. I sheared that since childhood I have one leg slightly shorter and that it is the cause of lumbar pain and sciatica. I've been wearing leg lift in my right shoe for 20 years. And now I was advised to increase the lift.
Dr. Filipe diagnosed me with childhood tailbone trauma that caused the shift in my spine, pelvis and hip but the legs are even. I didn't believe him but after the adjustment the legs were even. (I have to say that l've seen many different practitioners for this issue over the years). I still didn't believe and just waited for the leg go back to it's shorter version. But even legs were confirmed by a new X-ray! n very grateruito Dr. Filipe. We can say that he is a Magician but we know that he is just an extremely talented, knowledgeable and experienced doctor.
And kindhearted and caring too. Highly recommend. Obrigado!

Filipe is amazing! My 11 years old son suddenly got a lot of pain in his both feet after playing basketball and couldn’t even stand up for 4 days. After seeing may paediatricians and an orthopaedic in 2 major hospitals, they said it was an inflammation in his feet sole caused by a sudden overuse and only things we could do were resting, some gentle stretch and icing for a few days. I wasn’t very convinced about that, so I took my son to Filipe. After half an hour session, my son was able to stand up and walk!! Filipe is a very friendly and approachable person with a good heart. Highly recommended. Thank you so much Filipe!

There are days when I stop believing in miracles! However, after meeting Filipe, I started believing again! Two weeks ago, I was nearly paralyzed... after just one session with Filipe, I improved by 200%! That very same afternoon, I already felt like myself again. It was as if a weight had been lifted off my back—an incredible feeling of relief and lightness! This was my first experience with osteopathy, and believe me, my view and understanding of the body changed forever. Thank you, dear Filipe!

I live in Amsterdam (Holland) but whenever I'm in Porto (my wife comes from Porto) I try to visit Filipe for a treatment. A single treatment of Filipe helped me to reduce my lower back pain more than 10 treatments at different places in A'dam. Filipe excels in what he does and he does it to help, not to gain an extra client.
