Hello friends, I’m hoping to be more active here and wanted to introduce myself to anyone who’s new to our page.
My name is Shab, Shabnam Moledina is my full name, and I’m the Founder and Principle Physiotherapist at Little Heroes Physio.
I qualified in the UK with 20 years experience working with children with complex physical needs and neurological conditions, acquiring majority of my experience in large UK National Health Service (NHS) teaching hospitals.
Experience from the UK involve the following settings:
~ Neonatal unit, seeing babies born from 24 weeks
~ Spasticity clinics – injecting Botox and pre and post therapy management
~ FES – functional electrical stimulation
~ Paediatric ITU and HDU
~ Neuromuscular clinics
~ Early intervention
My passion and skills are with working with babies and young children with neurological conditions such as cerebral palsy, genetic conditions, and developmental delay.
I truly love working with children and their parents and will do everything in my power to help each child reach their potential. I have always been driven by flexibility and ‘outside the box’ treatment options that compliment physiotherapy. I therefore incorporate the use of other options available such as aquatic physiotherapy, splints, equipment, Lycra, FES, and Pilates, in conjunction with my treatments. I’m also currently Chair of the NSW Aquatic Physiotherapy Committee.
I moved to Shellharbour in 2018 with my family to enjoy the coastal lifestyle, which has been amazing and since being here I have worked in private practice and with charities. After gaining local experience I decided to embark on setting up my own practice in order to offer my personalised approach, skills, experience and passion to the little heroes of the Illawarra.
When I’m not working with Little Heroes I am a mum to three very busy children and you may catch me at the beach with my family or at various little cafes enjoying what’s on offer along this beautiful coastline.
