She is an AHPC registered physiotherapist with experience in various settings including in-patient, out-patient and home therapy while she works in community rehab hospitals.
Rina has a special interest in stroke rehabilitation. She enjoys the process of identifying the underlying impairments and formulating treatments that are challenging and engaging for her patients. During home physiotherapy session, Rina enjoys bringing her patient out of the house for community integration like walking in the market, taking a bus, simple grocery shopping, and so on.
