Arthrosis and joint pathology, at the Centre d'Excellence International d'Arthrosis du Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nancy, France since 2007.

She specialises in vestibular rehabilitation at the Antolí Candela Clinic in Madrid, and has been responsible for the implementation of the vestibular rehabilitation unit at the HUDGC since 2008.

Experimentation in this field has allowed me to tackle the multidisciplinary study of vertigo and dizziness, its assessment, diagnosis and treatment based on functional rehabilitation and frequent vestibular pathologies in different places in Spain, such as the Fundación Hospital de Alcorcón, Hospital de la Fe in Valencia and Seville, among others.

The dedication and the demands of my specialised work in the different fields of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation are aimed at the functional recovery of the patient and the readaptation to their normal life.
