Introducing Hugo Pereira π
Hugo moved to Lismore to study osteopathy at Southern Cross University. Having fallen in love with the Northern Rivers, he decided to grow roots in the area and upon completing his studies he joined Lismore Osteopathy.
Hugo has a background in remedial massage, which he practiced for over 15 years, before becoming an osteopath. Giving him an acute appreciation for the relationship between tight muscles, stiffness and restricted movement, and the pain and discomfort they cause.
No stranger to debilitating, chronic back pain and injuries himself, Hugo knows how important it is to care for the body with the help of osteopathic care, which is precisely the reason that led him to study osteopathic medicine.
Thereβs nothing Hugo enjoys more than caring for his patients and helping them improve their physical condition, not only with the use of manual techniques during the treatment but also with advice on posture, corrective exercises and tips on how to improve sleep, hydration and recovery from everyday wear and tear.
When heβs not working you might find him at the local mountain bike track, the Duck Creek Mountain Bike Park, or if the waves are good Flat Rock is one of his favourite spots.
