Our Story

Knowledge, proximity, and dedication

About us

SOLUMI was born in 2011, when Desi and Marco met in London. What began as a professional relationship soon became our life project, built on closeness, honesty, dedication, and a job well done. The name SOLUMI comes from our three daughter’s names: Sofía (wisdom), Lucía (light), and Emilia (effort), reflecting the values that inspire the clinic's way of working.

At SOLUMI, health is understood from a global perspective, where the organism functions as a complex system in which biological, psychological, and social factors interact. The body's different systems, habits, experiences, emotions, thoughts, rest, and exercise are all part of this interaction and shape overall well-being. Understanding these relationships allows us to address each case thoroughly and personally.

The first session is a fundamental step in the process. During this session, an in-depth assessment is carried out to understand each person's situation, identify the factors influencing their problem, and design a plan tailored to their needs. The goal of SOLUMI is not only to relieve symptoms, but to help understand what is happening and guide each patient through their recovery. To achieve this, every treatment is based on the best available scientific evidence, clinical experience, and individual goals, within a calm environment featuring private treatment rooms and a dedicated space for therapeutic exercise and functional rehabilitation.

Desi

Physiotherapist and Osteopath

With more than 20 years of international experience across Germany, the United Kingdom, and Spain, I specialise in trauma rehabilitation, neurology, and therapeutic exercise. Throughout my professional career, I have worked primarily in hospitals within the National Health Service (NHS), the UK public healthcare system, including centers such as St George's Hospital in London, alongside private practice experience. My post-graduate training includes specializations in neurodynamics, motor control, therapeutic Pilates, and lymphatic drainage, integrating diverse therapeutic tools based on clinical reasoning and scientific evidence. My approach combines physiotherapy, osteopathy, and a holistic patient assessment to enhance function, support recovery, and promote overall well-being tailored to each individual's needs.

With over 20 years of clinical experience in Spain and the United Kingdom, I specialise in clinical reasoning applied to complex musculoskeletal conditions and persistent chronic pain. I created and led the First Contact Practitioner Physiotherapist service at Braintree Primary Care Network (PCN), Essex, within the National Health Service (NHS), coordinating musculoskeletal care across 5 medical centers serving approximately 57,000 patients. I hold advanced training in manual therapy, neurodynamics, persistent pain, and Heart Rate Variability (HRV). My approach is grounded in structured clinical reasoning, individualised assessment, and active patient involvement in their recovery, empowering them to understand their condition and providing tools to optimize function and well-being.

We are located in Pastoriza, Arteixo, just a few minutes from A Coruña, Carballo, Laracha, and Oleiros.

Client reviews

Feedback from patients who have improved their health and quality of life.

It gives you great peace of mind to put yourself in the hands of professionals like Desi. She has a wealth of experience and a very thorough approach, always taking the time to understand what is causing the problem so she can treat it in the best possible way. At Solumi, both she and Marco provide a friendly and highly professional service. You can tell they genuinely enjoy their work and truly care about each patient. Highly recommended for anyone looking for high-quality physiotherapy.

A 10/10 experience from the very first moment. As soon as I arrived, I felt incredibly welcomed and received such a friendly and professional service, which made me feel comfortable throughout. It is clear that they genuinely care about their patients and about doing things properly. What stood out to me most, without a doubt, was the way they explain the relationship between each individual case and its underlying causes. I am extremely happy with both the treatment I received and the results. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend this place and would come back without hesitation. Many thanks to the whole Clínica Solumi team!

I went because of a back problem and I am honestly very happy with the results. Desi was fantastic from the very first moment, friendly and professional, and she quickly identified the treatment I needed. After just a couple of sessions, I noticed a big improvement. I would definitely recommend this clinic to anyone in Arteixo looking for a great physiotherapy service.

Professional and very friendly service. You can immediately tell how much experience Marco has during the consultations. He is also very involved and genuinely cares about his patients. After almost two months without any improvement using other methods, I found his clinic and I am now making real progress thanks to the sessions with him. Very happy with the results and I would highly recommend him.

So happy to have found such an excellent English-speaking physio in the area! It is definitely worth the trip from A Coruña. I have an issue that I have been needing treatment for, and it was really important to me to be able to explain it properly in English. I was very pleased with Desi. She was great, and I am so happy to have finally found someone I can see here.
