João Mota,
massage therapist.
I created the Total Recovery Method and work with one person at a time.
I assess, adapt and respect the body's limits. I do not promise cures; when a case requires another professional, I refer it on.
PresenceOne person at a time.
JudgementEvery choice has a reason.
HonestyNo promises of a cure.

Before you book
Frequently asked
questions.
How do I know which session is right for me?
You do not need to choose a technique blindly. During your first session, we discuss what you feel, your goal and your limits, then adapt the approach to you.
Does a massage have to hurt to be effective?
No. Some techniques may cause discomfort, but more pain does not mean a better result. The intensity is always adapted to your tolerance and your body's response.
Do the sessions replace medical care?
No. My work does not replace medical assessment, diagnosis or treatment. When a case falls outside my scope, I refer the client to the appropriate professional.
