About Candidate
As a qualified Physiotherapist with a Doctor of Physical Therapy and a Master’s in Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapy, I specialise in assessing, diagnosing, and treating a wide range of musculoskeletal, orthopaedic, and neurological conditions. I am experienced in delivering evidence-based rehabilitation using advanced manual therapy techniques, including Maitland and Mulligan mobilizations, myofascial release, dry needling, and spinal manipulation. I design and implement personalised treatment programs that incorporate therapeutic exercises, electrotherapy, and functional mobility training to restore movement, alleviate pain, and enhance patient outcomes.
My approach focuses on optimizing recovery through patient education, goal-directed therapy, and close interdisciplinary collaboration with physicians, orthopaedic surgeons, and occupational therapists. I am proficient in managing post-operative rehabilitation, sports injuries, chronic pain syndromes, and degenerative joint conditions. I maintain accurate documentation, track patient progress, and consistently update my clinical knowledge through continuing education and workshops. Passionate about restoring function and promoting independence, I strive to deliver high-quality, compassionate care that aligns with international physiotherapy standards.

The curriculum aligned with international standards (IFOMPT) and integrated critical appraisal, pain sciences, and functional motor control. This specialization equipped me with advanced hands-on skills, enhanced clinical decision-making capabilities, and the ability to design and implement individualized treatment plans for a wide spectrum of orthopedic and neuromuscular disorders.
Diploma in Occupational Health, Safety, and Environment (OHSE) from VSA Main Campus, Islamabad (2024) provided comprehensive training in workplace safety, hazard identification, risk assessment, and environmental protection practices. The program covered essential domains such as occupational health standards, industrial hygiene, emergency response planning, accident prevention, and legal frameworks governing HSE compliance. Emphasis was placed on promoting a safety culture in various professional environments, including healthcare and industrial settings. The course also introduced environmental management systems (EMS), waste management strategies, and sustainable practices to ensure regulatory adherence and ecological responsibility. This diploma enhanced my ability to implement proactive safety protocols, conduct safety audits, and contribute to a safer, healthier workplace aligned with national and international HSE standards.
Doctor of Physiotherapy (DPT) from Riphah International University, Islamabad (2023) provided an extensive foundation in clinical and academic physiotherapy, integrating advanced biomedical sciences, diagnostic reasoning, and patient-centered rehabilitation strategies.

My primary duty as a physiotherapist at DHQ Hospital in Batkhela, where I have been since July 2024, is to offer individualised rehabilitation therapies to restore mobility, lessen discomfort, and promote physical well-being. I perform thorough physical examinations to detect musculoskeletal problems and create customised treatment programs utilising evidence-based techniques such as manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and electrotherapy. By working with a multidisciplinary healthcare team, I guarantee all-encompassing patient care for the best possible rehabilitation results. To support long-term health, I teach patients how to avoid injuries, correct posture, and change their lifestyles.
