About Rúben Cordeiro
Rúben graduated from CESPU in Portugal in 2013 with a BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy. He has since developed clinical experience across sports, musculoskeletal and orthopaedic physiotherapy, working with patients experiencing a range of injuries and movement-related conditions.
In 2016, he completed a Master’s degree in Osteopathy, specialising in Techniques for the Locomotor System, at the Madrid School of Osteopathy. This furthered his knowledge of hands-on treatment techniques and their role in supporting physical recovery.
His clinical approach combines manual therapy with proprioceptive stretching and strengthening exercises. By considering the underlying factors contributing to an injury, Rúben aims to improve movement, support lasting recovery and reduce the likelihood of recurring problems.
Alongside his formal qualifications, he has undertaken postgraduate training in Sports Osteopathy, trigger point therapy, dry needling, acupuncture and Kinesio taping. He uses this knowledge to inform his treatment decisions according to each patient’s individual needs and rehabilitation goals.

Manual Therapy and Osteopathic Techniques
Following his postgraduate training in osteopathy, Rúben developed a strong interest in manual therapy and hands-on treatment techniques. He incorporates these approaches into his clinical practice where appropriate, alongside exercises designed to improve mobility and strength.
A Holistic Approach to Injury Rehabilitation
