Dietitian-nutritionist in Mataró

The Mataró clinic is inside Eurofitness El Sorrall, at Ronda del President Tarradellas, 103, in the Cerdanyola neighbourhood, next to Parc de Cerdanyola and close to the motorway exit. It is a consultation room within the sports centre, accessed through reception; you do not need to be a member.

Sandra López, a registered dietitian-nutritionist, sees clients here. The first appointment lasts 45 minutes: we discuss your reason for coming, medical history, medication, schedule and physical activity, and review any test results or medical reports you bring. You leave with practical guidance for the week and your next appointment arranged, in person or by video call.

This is the Maresme clinic, serving more than Mataró alone. The centre has free on-site parking, and the R1 Rodalies line and C-32 provide access from Argentona, Cabrera, Vilassar, Premià, El Masnou, Llavaneres, Caldes d’Estrac, Arenys, Canet and Calella. For food shopping, Mercat de la Plaça de Cuba and Mercat de la Plaça Gran are the two traditional markets, and Cerdanyola’s weekly market is next to the clinic: fresh, seasonal produce is the basis of the guidance.

Six areas of nutrition care are available in Mataró, always with Sandra López as the practitioner and the same starting point as at our other locations: assess the situation before recommending anything. The most requested is weight loss: rather than starting with a fixed list of foods, we look at your schedule, portions and meals away from home, and adapt them without disrupting everyday life. When the goal is the opposite — gaining weight or muscle — we work on weight gain, increasing intake gradually without leaving you uncomfortably full or eating out of obligation. To see how this can be approached before your first appointment, you can read about a weight-loss diet that does not lead to regaining the weight afterwards.

Many people come to the Mataró clinic with digestive discomfort: bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhoea or reflux. We offer nutrition care for digestive problems, always starting from a diagnosis you already have and coordinating with your doctor, not replacing them. If you also have a diagnosed condition — diabetes, hypertension, hypothyroidism, fatty liver, among others — guidance is adapted to that condition, your reports and treatment: nutrition supports medical treatment; it does not replace it or change your medication. Gastritis is one of the digestive concerns most often discussed in appointments; you can read about what to eat and avoid with gastritis before you come.

Mataró and the Maresme also have many people who take part in sport, including those who train at Eurofitness El Sorrall and those who travel from elsewhere. We provide sports nutrition, coordinated with your training or competition schedule rather than a generic gym chart. For people following a vegetarian, vegan or flexitarian diet, we check that the plan covers nutrients that are often lacking in this type of diet; if supplementation is needed, that decision is made with your test results in hand, not as a matter of course.

What differs across these six areas is not the first step — the same 45-minute assessment — but what is useful to bring. For weight loss or gain, it helps to note what you eat for a few days as usual, without changing anything for the appointment. For digestive concerns, symptoms, when they occur, and any reports or tests you already have are relevant. For sports nutrition, bring your training or competition schedule for the coming weeks. For a vegetarian or vegan diet, we can review recent test results alongside your plan; if you do not have any, tests can be requested before the plan is finalised.

All six areas share the same starting point: understanding your situation before making recommendations and building changes you can sustain over time, rather than a plan you abandon after a month. Follow-up frequency also varies: some cases progress with appointments every two or three weeks, while others have monthly reviews, depending on the goal and how your body responds. If your situation involves more than one concern — for example, weight loss and difficult digestion — we address them in the same clinic with the same practitioner, without splitting your care across two separate plans.
