Stephanie from Stephanie Fairbank Holistic Health Coach really knows her stuff when it comes to boosting energy and strengthening the immune system. She supported me incredibly well, especially after my bout with COVID. Not only did she treat me with healing mushrooms, but we also had productive Zoom sessions. She even helped create a nutritious and delicious menu that benefits my whole family's health. I was amazed at how knowledgeable she is about alternative medicine – her expertise in medicinal mushrooms, Reiki, and Ashwagandha is impressive! After every session, I definitely noticed improvements; plus, Stephanie always follows up with detailed emails to check on my progress. Scheduling appointments was a breeze too!

I've been seeing Suzanne as my craniosacral therapist for years now, and she's more than just a therapist to me—she's like a consultant. Suzanne is an incredible listener and has an intuitive understanding of exactly what treatment I need. She always provides feedback and useful tips to improve my well-being. Over the years, her continuous training means she offers even more to her clients; as she learns, I benefit. When I wasn't doing well, Suzanne was key in helping me identify my health issues. Thanks to her guidance, I received the right surgery and support that I couldn't find back in the US. Her commitment to digging deeper into the root causes of my problems has been invaluable. I trust Suzanne implicitly; she's a woman of great integrity and a true healer. The service is very reasonably priced, with convenient text reminders two days before appointments—I feel so lucky to have found her here in Portugal!

Marta from Biofeedback Therapy has been outstanding with her biodynamic feedback services. Her expertise is evident, and the results have been transformative for me – it's a major improvement that I'm quick to recommend to my family and friends. She creates a space where you feel heard, without any pressure, which has helped build my trust in her greatly. Whether in her clinic, at my home, or hers, every location feels safe and exceptionally clean; there's always a hint of fresh cleanliness in the air. Scheduling appointments with Marta is a breeze through WhatsApp; she's proactive about finding earlier slots if needed and is punctual to the dot. What's more impressive is how discreetly she manages appointments – I've never encountered another client during my visits.

I recently went to Dafna Mavor - Medicine Woman for a Reiki session with Daphna, and it was amazing. The moment I walked in, the warm vibe made me feel at ease. During the treatment, I was wrapped in this peaceful calm that stayed with me even after leaving. It's impressive how she combines ipac and Reiki; it felt like she healed more than just my body, like she touched on emotional stuff too. Afterward, I was just... lighter somehow, really balanced and chill. Daphna knows her stuff and if you're looking for a break from all the crazy out there, give her Reiki a shot – it's worth it!

I recently had an incredible full-body Ayurvedic massage at Sodashi Ayurveda, Massage & Sound Therapies with Claudia. I've experienced numerous massages before, but Claudia stands out as the best by a long shot. Her expertise is evident in her technique, and her kindness truly makes the whole experience comfortable. The setting is stunning too; you're surrounded by beauty with a view of the ocean that enhances relaxation. The use of delicious oils made the massage even more soothing. I was so impressed that I've already booked my next two sessions! Plus, coordinating appointments with Claudia is a breeze—all done through WhatsApp. Highly recommend her services!

I reached out to Humberto some time ago because I really needed to get a handle on my anxiety. He's been incredibly helpful; not only is he a personal trainer, but he also has other training that has benefited me. Humberto provided me with natural supplements which were easy to purchase and have assisted with both my anxiety and physical exercise routine. Due to the cost, I've used his services about 6 or 7 times - only when I truly need it. We set up meetings where we discuss issues regarding my job, which has been particularly stressful this summer, as well as my relationship and personal life. This helps him understand exactly what I need and which supplements are best suited for me. I'm not keen on doctors or pharmaceutical drugs, so Humberto's 100% natural supplements were a perfect fit for me. In fact, I've even recommended him to my wife.

Why we created Locallista?
As expats, we understand how overwhelming it can be to settle into a new city, where even simple tasks become difficult without a network, complicated by language barriers and cultural differences. That’s why we created Locallista — a closed platform where expats connect with trusted service providers recommended by the community, ensuring clear communication in English or their native languages, making life easier.
