I’m Cleide Ribeiro, a Brazilian massage therapist living and working in Portugal, based in Baixa da Banheira, in Moita. I specialise in Myofascial Release and Sports Therapy, but what defines me is humanisation: I work with technique and with time to listen to the person in front of me.

My story

From Brazil to Portugal, always with my hands at the service of care.

Origins

Brazilian, with a caring heart

I’m Brazilian 🇧🇷 and my path has always had one common thread: a genuine wish to help each person feel better in their own body.

Portugal · Setúbal Peninsula

A new home

I chose to build my life and my work in Portugal 🇵🇹, on the south bank of the Tagus, based in Baixa da Banheira, from where I now bring care to each person’s home in Barreiro, Moita, Seixal, Lisbon and the surrounding areas.

Journey

A complete repertoire

My path has taken me through relaxing, therapeutic and body contouring massage, lymphatic drainage and post-surgical care. It is this repertoire that lets me adapt the session to what the body asks for, instead of asking the body to adapt to the session.

Today

Myofascial and Sports Therapy

I devote myself mainly to Myofascial Release and Sports Therapy, the areas where I have specialised most deeply. Recently I added listening therapy, for those who need to work on emotional blocks.

I work every day with gratitude for the path I have walked. I often return to a passage from Isaiah 41:20, which reminds me of the purpose behind every gesture of care. 🌻🙏

Impeccable service, a super welcoming atmosphere and incredible energy. The massage went beyond my expectations! I left renewed, light and with a feeling of total well-being.

Emanuelle SantosGoogle

Excellent professional. I play football and had an inflamed ankle and was in pain; after the therapeutic massage I felt enormous relief. Very attentive, careful and technically very knowledgeable.

My specialisations

Where I put the most technique and the most dedication.

Among all the massages and therapies I do, there are two areas where I went deepest and where I feel I make the most difference.

Manual myofascial release on the back and shoulder

Myofascial Release

The technique where I went deepest. I work directly on restrictions in the muscle fascia, to relieve stiffness and restore mobility for people who have tried everything without lasting relief.

My philosophy

Before I touch, I listen.

This is what humanising means: putting the person’s needs at the centre. There is technique, knowledge and experience, and there is attention to what only that body and that story ask for. For me this is not a method, it is a commitment I made to myself.

Each session begins long before my hands touch you. It begins by listening to what you bring and what you are looking for. I never repeat a session, because I never have two identical people in front of me.

I believe in close, unhurried care, without unnecessary clinical distance. I don’t need to be cold to be professional: it is precisely this closeness that lets me understand what you need from the very first moment.

Why home care

I chose to work exclusively at people’s homes.

I don’t have a premises of my own, nor do I look for one. Coming to you is a deliberate choice: care reaches deeper when it happens where you already feel at home.

Comfort

You receive care in your own space, without leaving home.

Privacy

A familiar, private setting, just for you.

Convenience

Ideal for busy routines or if getting around is difficult.

Personalisation

The session is designed for you, not copied from a template.
