Ms Fazlien Solomons

I am passionate about NMS, and I have 22 years clinical experience within sports physiotherapy. I thoroughly enjoy being a clinician, and my clinical practice really enriches the way I teach. I love the clinical reasoning and problem-solving aspects of my work and developing these skills in students is exciting for me. My research interests lie in physiotherapy education, specifically creating online systems for students to track their skills development in clinical practice, and I look forward to developing research on this to further develop physiotherapy education, services and practice. Lastly, I am also interested in research concerning chronic pain. I have completed a few courses on chronic pain and feel that I need to stay up to date, as I treat a lot of runners and hockey-related injuries.
