Lina al Dawoud
Physiotherapist
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation Science from The University of Jordan, and I am a dedicated clinical physiotherapist with a specialization in musculoskeletal and ortho-sports rehabilitation. My passion lies in helping individuals of all ages overcome both acute and chronic conditions by providing evidence-based care tailored to their unique needs. With extensive experience, I approach health as an integrated system, guiding patients through effective coping strategies to manage injuries and pain throughout the treatment process.
I strongly believe in empowering individuals to achieve their full potential by leading active and healthy lifestyles. To me, movement is not just physical—it is deeply connected to socio-cultural, personal, and environmental aspects, and I strive to address these factors in every treatment plan I create.
