About the author

I was born in Zimbabwe and grew up in Kenya, East Africa. My father was a doctor specializing in tropical medicine and my mother a nurse. I had an adventurous upbringing, climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain, at the age of 17. Animals were my constant companions.

I wanted to be a physiotherapist from the age of 14 and did my physiotherapy training in London, England, and immigrated to Canada in 1972. I worked in hospitals in Oxford, England, Victoria, Yellowknife, Vancouver and later opened my own private practice in Deep Cove, North Vancouver. I am a long-time British Columbia physiotherapist and author of "The Posture Pain Fix" "Self-Health Fix" and "Shine Volume 3."

I have helped literally thousands of people with everything from sore necks, bad backs, wonky knees, dizziness and balance disorders and trauma of all kinds. My patients have included everyone from young soccer players to senior citizens with mobility issues. They have told me they appreciate my calmness, common sense, willingness to listen and holistic approach to their treatment. My inspiration has been my love of animals. I am an avid horse owner and rider and adore the great outdoors. My enjoyment is seeing others succeed, dealing with their pain and regaining control over their lives. My own struggle with chronic ear and hearing problems has made me empathize fully with those battling similar, debilitating, complex problems.

My philosophy has been one of combining physical treatment with an appreciation of the part that stress and other psychological issues play in patients’ overall health. As the Latin maxim says: “Mens sana in corpore sano (a healthy mind in a healthy body)

I have had back problems during my lifetime and read many books on what to do. The Posture Pain Fix is the first book I've read that actually explains, in depth, why we humans are plagued with back, shoulder, neck, and joint problems. The best part of the book was seeing the right and wrong way to do specific jobs and tasks. Since reading, I now find myself correcting my posture - and feel much better!

The graphics and warning signals through the book are super helpful. It's terrific as a resource after you read it - items are easy to find. Rosalind has done an outstanding job assembling the pertinent information you need to have to reduce and even eliminate pain. Every reader will benefit.
