Her clinical practice was born from a simple conviction: that good care involves being truly present, with knowledge, listening, and genuine attention to each person.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"860\" data-end=\"1323\">Driven by scientific curiosity and a genuine desire to understand the human body in depth, she specialised in Neuromuscular Physiotherapy, through postgraduate studies at the Escola Superior de Sa\u00fade da Cruz Vermelha Portuguesa. Throughout her professional career, she has dedicated herself to the treatment and rehabilitation of neuromuscular diseases such as stroke, Parkinson's, Multiple Sclerosis and Facial Palsy, becoming a leading figure in this field in Portugal.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1325\" data-end=\"1632\">In 2020, she joined Facial Therapy Specialists International (FTSI) and the Facial Paralysis Unit at CUF Tejo Hospital, pioneering the development of specialised physiotherapy protocols for Facial Paralysis, an area in which she continues to innovate and train other professionals. She is currently continuing this work at Integrativa, in Restelo (Lisbon), where she deepens the clinical and human approach in the care of people with nervous system dysfunctions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-&#091;1.7&#093;\">With a global and integrative vision, she is also a Clinical Pilates Instructor, certified by the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute (APPI). Her own pregnancy sparked a deep interest in Women's Health Physiotherapy, an experience that made her understand, from the inside, how important this support is. Since then, she has specialised in Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation, Antenatal Preparation and Postnatal Support, assisting women in different life stages with sensitivity, empathy, and scientific rigour.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-&#091;1.7&#093;\">At Integrativa, Alexandra Gomes combines technical knowledge, clinical experience, and empathetic listening, offering personalised and effective physiotherapy in Lisbon, centred on the individual and their functional balance and overall well-being.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-8\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_separator wpb_content_element vc_separator_align_left vc_sep_width_100 vc_sep_pos_align_center vc_custom_1679428149027 wpb_content_element vc_separator-has-text\" ><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_l\"><span style=\"border-color:#1b9193;\" class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span><div class=\"vc_icon_element vc_icon_element-outer vc_do_icon vc_icon_element-align-left\"><div class=\"vc_icon_element-inner vc_icon_element-color-custom vc_icon_element-size-md vc_icon_element-style- vc_icon_element-background-color-grey\" ><span class=\"vc_icon_element-icon fas fa-feather\" style=\"color:#1b9193 !important\"><\/span><\/div><\/div><h4>Curriculum<\/h4><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_r\"><span style=\"border-color:#1b9193;\" class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span>\n<\/div><div  class=\"vc_do_toggle vc_toggle vc_toggle_default vc_toggle_color_default  vc_toggle_size_md\"><div class=\"vc_toggle_title\"><h4>Academic Training<\/h4><i class=\"vc_toggle_icon\"><\/i><\/div><div class=\"vc_toggle_content\"><ul>\n<li>Degree in Physiotherapy<span style=\"color: #000000;\">from <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.estesl.ipl.pt\/cursos\/licenciaturas\/fisioterapia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lisbon School of Health Technologies<\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Postgraduate in Neuromuscular Physiotherapy from the Lisbon School of Health Technology<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><div  class=\"vc_do_toggle vc_toggle vc_toggle_default vc_toggle_color_default  vc_toggle_size_md\"><div class=\"vc_toggle_title\"><h4>Further training<\/h4><i class=\"vc_toggle_icon\"><\/i><\/div><div class=\"vc_toggle_content\"><ul>\n<li>2024: Training in physiotherapy applied to the pelvic floor<\/li>\n<li>2023: Participation in <em>6<sup>th<\/sup> International Course an Update on Facial Paralysis<\/em> (Madrid)<\/li>\n<li>2020: Physiotherapy Training in the Treatment and Rehabilitation of Facial Paralysis<\/li>\n<li>2022: Training in antepartum preparation and postpartum follow-up with Maria Jo\u00e3o Alvito<\/li>\n<li>2019: Clinical Pilates training by APPI (Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><div  class=\"vc_do_toggle vc_toggle vc_toggle_default vc_toggle_color_default  vc_toggle_size_md\"><div class=\"vc_toggle_title\"><h4>Most relevant professional experience<\/h4><i class=\"vc_toggle_icon\"><\/i><\/div><div class=\"vc_toggle_content\"><ul>\n<li>Pioneer in the development of Physiotherapy in the Treatment and Rehabilitation of Facial Paralysis in Portugal<\/li>\n<li>2021-Present: Physiotherapist at Integrativa<\/li>\n<li>2020-2024: Physiotherapist at the Cuf Tejo Facial Paralysis Unit<\/li>\n<li>2019-2024 Physiotherapist at Cuf Infante Santo\/Tejo Hospital<\/li>\n<li>2016-2017 Physiotherapist at Linde Health Respiratory Rehabilitation Centre<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- Row Backgrounds --><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alexandra Gomes de Brand\u00e3o Fisioterapeuta C\u00e9dula Fisioterapeuta: 1459 | Ordem dos Fisioterapeutas Alexandra Gomes de Brand\u00e3o Fisioterapeuta Alexandra Gomes de Brand\u00e3o \u00e9 Fisioterapeuta licenciada pela Escola Superior de Tecnologia da Sa\u00fade de Lisboa, dedicada \u00e0 recupera\u00e7\u00e3o funcional e \u00e0 promo\u00e7\u00e3o de uma sa\u00fade equilibrada e consciente.
