Shirin Patel

Shirin is a bilingual (EN/FR) physiotherapist with over 4 years of experience in helping patients regain mobility and improve their quality of life. Her experiences in her own athletic pursuits and recovery from multiple injuries has allowed her to experience rehab as both a patient and therapist, which has allowed her to empower her patients and provide them with goal-oriented treatment plans. Shirin is also IMS certified through Acupuncture Canada. Shirin has experience treating various orthopaedic injuries, with a special interest in running related injuries. She uses a combination of manual therapy, soft tissue work, education, and individualized exercise plans to help her patients return to the activities that they love after injury. Shirin is committed to fostering a supportive environment that encourages recovery and wellbeing. One of Shirin's special offerings is a comprehensive Running Assessment. In it, you will be taken through a functional running specific strength and mobility assessment. Shirin will video record your running technique to assess and analyze your gait on a treadmill. Based on the findings of the assessment, you will receive a specific intervention plan, running program and exercises tailored to your needs. Check out her booking page to book your assessment. As a newly arrived Toronto transplant, when Shirin is not in the clinic, you will find her on the mountain snowboarding or hiking and trying new foods in the city. Feel free to give her any hike or restaurant suggestions during your next appointment!
