With 15 years old I am diagnosed with scoliosis. The word that was constantly repeated in those adults who cared for me (parents, doctors, assistants, etc.) was “correct.” People correct their mistakes, but my spine through pain warned me that I should value myself more and not step aside, forcing my posture to see myself stright or right was not going to change how I felt about myself. Our body is perfect and speaks through the symptom what our emotions are quiet about. The treatments that were waiting for me were very invasive: A corset of intensive use and in case of not working, a metal bar on my spine that required a surgery. I spent my teenage years with a corset 23 hours a day and the symptoms did not move forward or backward. A relative  suggested trying yoga and osteopathy. Through these complementary practices to medical treatment I was able to reverse my deviation by 5 degrees and I stopped feeling pain!

This experience together with the illness process of my grandparents generated in me a strong sense of empathy and a desire to help people suffering from both physical and emotional pain.

I look forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with you, while I accompany you in your healing process.
