Tell us about yourself…

My name is Shahla Tavakolnia and I have been practicing physiotherapy since 1987.

I founded Unique Rehab & Physiotherapy in 2002 and have since expanded my skill set as a RMT, Acupuncturist and Certified Pilates Instructor. I incorporate all these principles into my everyday practice.

What made you become a physiotherapist?

I always knew that I wanted to be a medical practitioner. I chose physiotherapy because the process of patient care is direct, making me more involved in a patient’s treatment. I also enjoyed the opportunity to observe each individual patient’s progress and recovery along the way. Knowing that all recovery is drug free made it all the more rewarding.
