My main research area focuses on the study and management of chronic musculoskeletal pain within the field of physiotherapy. Currently, we are conducting comprehensive evaluations using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and electroencephalography (EEG) to gain deeper insights into the neural correlates of chronic pain. Additionally, we are integrating Virtual Reality as an innovative therapeutic tool to enhance pain management strategies. Our research aims to develop advanced, evidence-based interventions that improve outcomes for patients suffering from chronic pain conditions.
