Biography

[edit]

Born in Alicante in 1932, the son of a high-ranking republican political figure, the historical circumstances in his country forced him to start his professional and educational training in an autodidact manner from a very young age.

His early studies were related to commerce, and his first jobs involved graphic design, which led him to work in drawing and advertising during the early part of his life. He even undertook management of whole creative department in several advertising companies. During this time, he became interested in poetry and politics, to the point of actively participating in a progressive political party.

His vocation for graphology manifested in the early 1970s when he began to take an interest in the works of Xandró, Aflegret, and later Augusto Vels.

He joined the Spanish Society of Graphology as a founding member and later graduated in Graphology and Graphopathology with Honors from the Faculty of Medicine, due to his work on the relationship between handwriting and cancer.

In the late 1970s, he began researching the possibility of creating a handwriting reeducation method under the hypothesis that if handwriting is "the mirror of the soul," changing handwriting could change personality and even cure the diseases affecting it. This would be the germ of Graphotherapy, defined as a therapeutic technique for treating emotional ailments through handwriting reeducation.

He then began a series of investigations with patients aimed at testing this possibility and observed that in many cases, the disease was eradicated, and in others, the symptoms were notably alleviated by using handwriting reeducation.

During this period, he studied and worked with over a hundred cases applying Graphotherapy techniques, conducting thorough follow-ups and achieving positive results, which encouraged him to offer this system as an alternative therapy.

He later became a member of the Society of Graphology and Graphotherapy, conducting numerous studies relating handwriting alterations to illnesses such as depression, skin diseases, various neurotic and psychotic disorders, hormonal disorders, organic disorders with a psychosomatic component, and even the tendency to suffer traffic accidents.

In the early 1980s, he developed an analytical system that simplified handwriting traits to the maximum and aimed to find the unit of measurement for handwriting, which would be the stroke. This analysis characterized the school that would later be known as "Rational Graphology." His system is reflected in his work La curación por la escritura and in his unpublished work Cuadernillos para la curación por la escritura.

Throughout the decade, he continued to research, teaching his technique to hundreds of interested graphologists, and treated nearly a thousand patients with this system.

During the last stage of his life, he worked in his own office, the Gabinete de Aplicación e Investigación de la Grafología, perfecting his Graphotherapy method and treating numerous cases of pathologies with this system.

He died in Madrid in 1993.
