Sobre mim

Saiba mais sobre mim

Sou médica fisiatra formada pela Universidade de São Paulo (USP), com pós-doutorado em Neurociência pela Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (EUA) e treinamento em Neuromodulação Não Invasiva (TMS) pela Harvard Medical School (EUA).

Atendo pacientes com dor crônica e disfunções musculoesqueléticas utilizando abordagens modernas e personalizadas, com foco em tratamentos não medicamentosos e minimamente invasivos, como:

  • Neuromodulação não invasiva (TMS)

  • Terapia por Ondas de Choque

  • Agulhamento seco e bloqueios de nervos guiados por ultrassom

Minha missão é ajudar pessoas a viverem com menos dor e mais qualidade de vida, integrando tecnologia, ciência e reabilitação funcional.
Atuo em São Paulo, no Apollo Centro Avançado de Reabilitação, e mantenho colaborações de pesquisa com centros de referência internacionais em dor e neurociência.
