I received my education from India and have around 5 years of experience in my work which includes in patient, outpatient, musculoskeletal, neurological, post surgical, post fracture and sports rehabilitation. I used to run two clinics in India alongside working in a multi-speciality hospital where I learnt a lot about appreciating the individuality of every client/ patient.

I firmly believe that the treatment plan should always be focused around the patient’s goals and outcomes of their expectations from the rehab. I use evidence based support for structuring a tailored rehab programme designed as per the patient’s objectives. I understand patient’s pain and disability from their perspective first and then mine which gives me an insight into their strengths and weaknesses.

I robustly support exercise and strength over rest and feel that active participation of a patient is a must in their rehab which adds value and meaning to the treatment. I practise manual techniques such as stretching, mobilisations, strengthening, kinesiology taping, cupping and combinations of different movements to make my patient’s able to live their life painlessly to the fullest
