Rahim recently completed a Nordic Pole Walking certification through the University of Ottawa Heart Institute in Ottawa. Walking with these poles in the correct technique provides you with a full body workout by engaging the muscles in your core, upper body and legs. It has many benefits, is easily learned, and can be tailored to fit the individual needs of the walker.
Rahim’s approach to rehabilitation is evidence based practice that involves an emphasis on a biopsychosocial perspective. This includes improving function through manual therapy, motor control and function exercise and IMS/dry needling. Rahim works part time with the Ottawa Hospital in the Total Joint Assessment Clinic.
