International medical consultations center located in the heart of Lisbon
This specialty is aimed at both amateur athletes who need follow-ups and advice to start a sporting activity, as well as at experienced athletes who wish to optimise their mechanical, physiological, and metabolic performance, prevent injuries, or treat injuries for a rapid recovery.
It is also possible to carry out sports fitness examinations focusing on cardiovascular risks and musculo-articular structures.
Finally, the sports physician guides patients who wish to use physical activity to prevent or treat a chronic disease (diabetes, hypertension, depression, obesity, osteoarthritis, etc.). Personalised exercises, adapted to the patient’s tastes and schedule, can be prescribed in this case.
