Vision: With a holistic point of view to our body’s structure, function and adaptability, Mohsen believes in the self-healing and self-regulating power of the human body. “I think when our body cannot adjust itself to above-threshold musculoskeletal demands, it becomes “derailed”, and what I have to do is bring it back in to its natural healthy “rail” through osteopathic manual readjustment and soft tissue regulatory techniques and let the bodies natural healing take care of the remainder. In this journey, I believe in a teamwork principle and using other profession’s capacities to help the body’s self-healing power.” Education: Due to Mohsen’s enthusiastic willingness to relieve people’s pain and discomfort, he decided to study Physiotherapy in Shiraz, Iran. After graduating with a Bachelor in Physiotherapy his history and interest in various sports such as Karate, football, wrestling and body-building drove him to achieve a Master of Sport Physiotherapy course (MSc) with focus on manual therapy. While working in different positions as a Sport and Orthopedic physiotherapist, he succeeded to pass his Transitional Doctor of Physiotherapy (DPT). After seven years of experience in rehabilitation and treatment of various Sport, Chronic Pain and Orthopedic conditions he found the missing piece of his practice puzzle; Manual Osteopathy. He deep heartedly believes that Osteopathic manual therapy is potentially capable to play one of the most important roles in both our general health and specific musculoskeletal issues. Professional Experiences and Achievements: Registered Osteopathic Manual Practitioner (ROMP / RMO) in Limelight Wellness Clinic in Vancouver, B.C. Chief Physiotherapist in Baran Manual Osteopathy and Physiotherapy Institute, Dr Farahmandfar and Besat Hospitals, and Fars Sport Medicine Association. Cooperated with the first academic manual therapy clinic in the School of Rehabilitation Sciences in Shiraz University of Medical Sciences. Leisure time activities: In his free time he enjoys time with his family, walking, cycling, camping, playing football, volleyball, and other group entertainment and exciting activities. Practice Focus: Mohsen enjoys working with highly challenging musculoskeletal and chronic pain problems; this part of his personality is always encouraging him to stay up-to-date on the latest theoretical and practical knowledge and studying new therapeutic techniques and applying them to his clients.
