Physiotherapist Telma Vitorino

“Do not conform to this world.
Be transformed by renewing your mind,
so that you may discern the higher will:
what is good,
what is pleasing,
what is perfect.”

Being a physiotherapist means exactly this: discerning the higher calling.

And from that discernment, a path of meaningful and fulfilling choices has been shaped.
