Atin

Sintra, Sep 2026

Flavia was good. She did mold cleaning in 2 or 3 of our rooms in Sintra, it was a very short project and she managed to clean everything up. She was quite professional, came on time, and was quite thorough. The price felt fair and I had a good experience overall.

Cascais, Oct 2025

I’m an old professional athlete with permanent back and torn muscle issues, and I met Ferda through a friend. She’s very good at osteopathy and uses dry needles, and she resolved more or less 70-80% of my problems, so I still keep on seeing her. Sessions are long and intense at the start and then more like recovery touches, and she’s very on time - actually better than me - and the price felt very reasonable for the time she gives. Sometimes I think she could use a bigger place so people don’t wait, but overall she’s become a very permanent person in my life.

Lisboa, Aug 2026

I have been doing massages with Mafalda for a few years, first at the gym where I met her, and now she comes to our home in Lisbon. She gives massages to me, my husband, and my teenage son, and whenever my son has a problem from the sport he does, she explains what she identified and how she is going to treat it. She brings her own equipment and creams, she is super nice and kind, and the price feels fair.

Frequently Asked Questions

What expats want to know before hiring physiotherapists in Lisbon.

Are there English-speaking physiotherapists in Lisbon?
Yes, and more do as the expat community grows. The hard part is knowing who is reliable before you book, so every one we list is reviewed by other expats who have actually used them.
What should I check before hiring physiotherapists in Lisbon?
Read recent reviews, be clear about exactly what you need, and agree the scope and an estimate in writing before any work starts. For anything regulated, check they hold the right credentials for the job.
Are the doctors and dentists properly registered in Lisbon?
Yes. Doctors and dentists must be registered, with the relevant Ordem (Ordem dos Médicos or Médicos Dentistas) in Portugal. Reputable private clinics will confirm their professionals' registration.
What should I avoid when hiring physiotherapists in Lisbon?
Avoid paying the full amount up front (a deposit can be fair), anyone who will not give a clear quote, and unusually cheap prices that get padded with extras later. And never use someone who cannot show the right certification.
How do I explain what I need if my Portuguese is limited?
A photo, a short video or a written list does most of the talking, and the professionals we list are used to international clients. Booking an English-speaking one takes the stress out of it entirely.
How do you say physiotherapists in Portuguese?
In Portuguese, physiotherapists are usually called fisioterapeutas. That is the word to search for or to ask a neighbour, though many professionals here are used to the English term too.
How do I find physiotherapists I can trust in Lisbon?
Check the reviews and any credentials before you book. On Locallista the reviews are phone-verified and the ranking is based on real expat experience, not who paid the most.
