Zahra is an experienced Kinesiologist with a passion for health, movement, and exercise-based rehabilitation. She graduated from the University of the Fraser Valley in 2014 with a Bachelor of Kinesiology, specializing in Exercise Science, and has been working as a Kinesiologist for over a decade. Zahra is a member of the British Columbia Association of Kinesiologists and also holds a personal training certification through the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology. Throughout her career, she has worked with a diverse range of individuals, including those managing musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, and cardiac conditions. Her experience also extends into community and hospital settings, where she has volunteered as an activity coordinator and worked with individuals recovering from stroke and those managing cardiac conditions. This background has given Zahra experience adapting exercise and rehabilitation to different levels of ability and physical function. Zahra works one-on-one with her patients, beginning with a thorough assessment of their movement, abilities, and rehabilitation goals. From there, she develops individualized and progressive exercise programs designed to improve strength, mobility, endurance, and overall physical function. Her approach focuses on helping patients safely build their physical capacity and confidence over time, with the goal of achieving greater independence and returning to the activities that are important to them.
