Diogo saved me – really. I had a debilitating back injury, 6 ruptured disks and double sciatica. I tried all sorts of treatments, nothing helped – that is, untill Diogo. He took the time to understand my injury and where I was in my recovery. He customized a series of therapeutic exercises for me at each stage of my progress. He taught me how to walk again! He followed up regularly to make sure I was doing the work, and even did the exercises with me when I lost my will. Several times when my progress hit a wall, he spent the time to figure out why, and with his deep knowledge and intuitive grasp, reworked my therapy untill I started to progress again. Now I’m better! I can run again! And my posture is better than ever! But that’s not the end of it. Diogo is guiding me to a whole new level of health. I’m doing cartwheels and head stands for the first time ever! At 54 and with Diogo’s continued help I’ll be doing handstands soon and more! I can’t believe it! Diogo is much more than I realized – he’s a genuine healer. I can’t thank you enough Diogo
