About
Maria rehabilitates the conditions that limit movement and cause pain: arthritis, neck and back pain, sciatica, Bell's palsy, carpal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis, and joint problems of the shoulder, elbow, knee, wrist, and ankle. In sports rehabilitation, she guides recovery from sprains, strains, and fractures, restoring mobility and strength for a safe return to daily life and sport.
