About
Sourav has a passion for improving patients' lives through a range of manual therapy techniques. With a Bachelor of Physiotherapy degree from the University of Jammu in India, Sourav started his career as a Consultant Physiotherapist in the private sector, where he gained valuable experience in treating patients with various musculoskeletal conditions.
In 2015, Sourav pursued his interest in nutrition and completed a Certificate in Food & Nutrition from the Indira Gandhi National Open University in India. He then decided to further his education and completed a Graduate Diploma in Sports & Exercise Science from the Waikato Institute of Technology (Wintec) in Hamilton, New Zealand, in 2016. Sourav also completed a Certificate in Professional Massage Practice from Wintec, which led him to work as a Massage therapist in Auckland for the past 4 years.
Sourav's dedication to improving patient outcomes led him to complete his Masters in Dietetics and food service management (MscDFSM) from Indira Gandhi National Open University in India in 2019. He also completed a certification course in Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM), which has enabled him to provide an even wider range of therapeutic options to his patients. Recently, in 2020, he became a Certified Practitioner of Myofascial Cupping and Kinesiology Taping for Trigger Points, further enhancing his manual therapy skills.
Sourav is particularly interested in treating patients with musculoskeletal problems using a range of hands-on techniques, including releasing superficial to deep tissue layers, muscle stretching, and release trigger points to enhance muscle recovery. He is also passionate about community health and encourages regular exercise, posture correction, healthy dietary habits, and general fitness to his patients.
Outside of work, Sourav enjoys Indian-style cooking and can often be found in the gym training or playing outdoor sports, especially cricket. With his extensive education and experience, Sourav is committed to providing the highest level of care to his patients and making a positive impact on their lives.
