Why Acupuncture for Sports Recovery and Performance ?
A natural, evidence-based solution for physical recovery, with No Side effects.
Officially recognized by the World Health Organization for its clinical effectiveness.
My Approach of acupuncture : Tradition Meets Performance
Sports acupuncture isn't one-size-fits-all.
When you arrive at my practice in Nice, I don't simply apply a standard protocol !
I take time to understand your specific situation—your training regimen, your competition schedule, your injury history, and your recovery goals.
My method combines traditional Chinese acupuncture principles with modern sports medicine understanding.
I've spent 15 years refining this approach through work with Olympic athletes, professional competitors, and dedicated amateurs.
Each session is tailored to your current physical state and immediate needs.

A Method Backed by Science
More than just a tradition, acupuncture isofficially recognized by the World Health Organization for its clinical effectiveness. It is also listed by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage of humanity. Recognized worldwide for its ability to improve well-being naturally and without side effects.
-
A Time-Tested and Proven Practice:
Its international recognition is based on extensive studies that confirm its effectiveness, regardless of personal beliefs. Acupuncture is a millennia-old practice that stimulates the body's internal mechanisms. It activates the neurological system and optimizes energy circulation, thus facilitating a return to personal balance.

15 Years of Experience at Your Service
I believe in a collaborative and caring approach. During our first meeting, we will take the time to discuss your medical history, your pain, and your goals. Together, we will develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs, utilizing my 15 years of experience as a therapist to provide you with the best possible care.
I have over 15 years of experience as a therapist !
I've helped hundreds of people with Sport Acupuncture and manual therapy in Nice.
I have gained extensive experience in treating athletes, focusing on muscle, joint, and tendon recovery.
Through my own intensive practice of boxing and African dance, I have developed care techniques that promote performance and muscle recovery. I have also explored the benefits of acupuncture as a patient for back pain and to address my own physical issues, notably wrist tendonitis, which is common among massage therapists.
My journey into the world of healing began 20 years ago, far off the beaten path, in the equatorial forests of Africa, where I learned traditional medicine from the Pygmy people. This unique experience laid the foundation for what would become my calling: to help others.
what they say about me
Laura, a triathlete preparing for Ironman Nice, came to see me. Her shoulders were locked, her lower back was screaming after every training session. Three acupuncture sessions later, she not only completed the race—she achieved her personal best.

I've Learned Around the World
I've attended several acupuncture schools both here in France and in Brazil, where I studied anatomy and participated in a study group on integrative medicine (alternative medicine) organized by the Brazilian Ministry of Health.
-
Modern Approach
With a scientific approach, I prioritize effectiveness above all else. I don't adhere to specific beliefs or the ego of certain schools. I advocate for a practice centered on the individual I treat and adapted to the present time.
-
Traditional Teachings
Chinese energetics is an ancient practice that encompasses Chinese metaphysics, which I learned in school and incorporate into my practice, always striving for coherence and tailoring my approach to the individual I'm treating.
Acupuncture: A Complement, Not a Substitute for Conventional Medicine!
I fully recognize the importance of conventional medical treatments. As an acupuncture practitioner in Nice, I do not claim to replace traditional medicine. On the contrary, I consider acupuncture a beneficial complement that can improve well-being and quality of life.
I always encourage following medical recommendations and emphasize that my practice does not replace essential medical care prescribed by healthcare professionals.
