Biofeedback in Lisbon
Resting is something you learn.
Mind racing, body at its limit? Biofeedback helps your body step out of alert mode and rest again. Start with a first session, with no commitment to continue. It complements medical care, it does not replace it.
Does this sound familiar?
When the body can’t leave alert mode
The body spends months on alert and forgets how to switch off. It happens to a lot of people.
If you recognised two or more of these signs, a first session is a good place to begin.
Book your first sessionIf these signs are frequent, please also talk to your doctor. Biofeedback supports well-being and self-regulation; it is not a medical treatment and does not replace a clinical assessment.
What a session is like
Calm, comfortable and no surprises
An hour and a half in an armchair, soft sensors on your skin and time to breathe. You don’t need to prepare anything.
We talk
We start by talking about how you have been and what you are looking for.
You relax in an armchair
Soft sensors on the skin, with no needles or shocks, record how your body responds to stress.
The body regulates
Subtle stimuli support your natural capacity for self-regulation. Most people describe the session as relaxing.
The person behind it
Hello, I’m Filipa
I spent many years in banking, consulting and marketing, saying that one day I would change my life. I changed it when my body forced me to, with burnout. Biofeedback helped me rest again, and today I support other people with sleep problems, anxiety and stress, in Lisbon.
I don’t promise cures. I give time and attention, and silence is part of the therapy too.
Testimonial
“…not only did I sleep deeply during the treatment, but that night and the following nights I slept more than 9 hours straight.”

For those who like to understand how it works
The technology behind it: Mandelay Q9
The body communicates through electrical signals. During prolonged stress, these patterns can become dysregulated, which feels like tension, unrefreshing sleep or a mind that won’t switch off.
The system records these signals through sensors on the skin and sends subtle stimuli that support the body’s natural capacity for self-regulation. It supports well-being and does not replace medical care.
