Meet Your therapist
I have been living in Virginia since 1995 and in Herndon since I have been practicing physical therapy since 2011. I treat all orthopedic conditions but specialize in women's health, vestibular therapy, dry needling, myofascial release, geriatrics and chronic pain management.
​
I am especially interested in complex cases. If you have had issues for many years and nothing has really helped, I would love to do an assessment and figure out what might be missing.
​
I absolutely adore the elderly population and love working with this age group. I am determined to prove that aging does not equal pain and dysfunction and that there is always room for improvement in quality of life.
​
I treat every patient with the same level of care and concern as I would for my friends and family. Your satisfaction with my care is my utmost priority. I take pride in the comprehensive care that I provide to all my patients to ensure that their recovery is as fast and permanent as possible.
​
When I am not practicing physical therapy I enjoy spending time with my three dogs Jean-Pierre, Louie and Philippe and my husband. I was born and raised in Tehran, Iran but have been calling Virginia home since 1995. I am fluent in Farsi and can get by in Spanish. I enjoy gardening, cooking, hosting friends and family, dancing, listening to international music, hiking, traveling, canoeing, yoga, and doing DIY projects around the house.
