Orthopedics

Care for the musculoskeletal system, focused on orthopedics, pain medicine and sports medicine — from diagnosis to minimally invasive procedures, such as ultrasound-guided injections and shockwave therapy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which regions and conditions does orthopedics at Ânima Clinic treat?

Spine (herniated discs, osteoarthritis, low back and neck pain, sciatic pain), knee (osteoarthritis, chondromalacia), shoulder (tendinitis, bursitis, adhesive capsulitis), hip (osteoarthritis, trochanteric bursitis), feet and ankles (plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, bunions, sprains) and hands and wrists (carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger finger, tendinitis), as well as sports injuries.

What is pain medicine?

It is the field dedicated to diagnosing and treating pain — especially chronic pain, such as low back and neck pain, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, tendinitis and sports injuries. The focus is on resolving or controlling pain with minimally invasive, non-surgical procedures, such as analgesic blocks and ultrasound-guided injections.

Does all pain require surgery?

No — all pain has a treatment, and surgery is far from the only path. Treatment prioritizes minimally invasive options: injections and analgesic blocks, shockwave therapy, regenerative therapies (such as PRP, hyaluronic acid and prolotherapy) and, when indicated in accordance with legislation, medical cannabis for chronic pain.

Can the orthopedics consultation be online?

Yes. Care can be in person, in São Paulo, or via telehealth, according to each patient’s preference and needs.
