About Nihari

Nihari is an HCPC and CSP registered Physiotherapist working as a Physiotherapist at SMARTPHYSIO. She holds an MSc in Physiotherapy from Cardiff University and a Bachelor of Physiotherapy from Manipal Academy of Higher Education. Her clinical experience includes musculoskeletal, neurological, cardiopulmonary, community and sports rehabilitation.

Nihari began her clinical career in India as a Rotational Physiotherapist at a multi-specialty hospital, gaining experience in patient assessment, manual therapy, exercise rehabilitation and patient education across musculoskeletal, neurological, cardiopulmonary, intensive care, paediatrics, women’s health and oncology rehabilitation. She also has experience in sports physiotherapy, working as a Team Physiotherapist with a football club in Wales, supporting injury assessment, rehabilitation, taping and return to play.

Nihari takes a patient-centred approach, combining exercise, hands-on treatment and education to help patients manage their symptoms, improve movement and return to the activities they enjoy. She particularly enjoys the problem-solving aspect of physiotherapy and tailoring rehabilitation to each individual’s goals.

Outside of work, Nihari enjoys staying active and recently took up tennis. She loves travelling, exploring new places, and catching up with friends over brunch at the weekend.
