Meet Renata
Hello, I'm Renata, originally from Brazil, and I earned my Physical Therapy degree in 2005. Holding active PT licenses in Brazil, Florida, and California, I am deeply passionate about movement. Since 2006, I have been sharing my love for Pilates, and since 2010, I've been teaching GYROTONIC®. My journey also led me to focus on pelvic floor rehabilitation.
My personal experience as a patient was what truly motivated me to become a Physical Therapist. After struggling with severe shoulder pain and visiting multiple doctors and physical therapists, I spent a lot of time treating my shoulder pain until I found one physical therapist who discovered that my shoulder pain was actually related to TMJ issues. After addressing the root cause, I finally felt better.
This experience shaped my approach to physical therapy. I always aim to do an assessment that allows me to find the root cause of my patients' problems, just like that physical therapist did for me. With a unique approach that integrates my expertise in movement, including Pilates and GYROTONIC®, and pelvic floor therapy, I am dedicated to enhancing posture, refining body mechanics, and providing holistic treatments designed not only to address symptoms but to make you feel better overall. Join me on this wellness journey!
