Bridging Continents, Healing Lives: A Lifetime Dedicated to Physical Therapy Excellence
Welcome! I am Mokhtar Sahraoui, a licensed Physical Therapist and Physiotherapist with over 27 years of hands-on clinical experience across two continents. My journey in healthcare has been driven by a singular mission: to restore mobility, alleviate pain, and empower individuals to reclaim their quality of life. From the bustling hospitals of North Africa to the diverse communities of Jersey City, New Jersey, I have dedicated my career to advancing rehabilitation medicine, treating complex cases, and mentoring the next generation of therapists. Today, I am proud to extend my expertise beyond the clinic through this platform, offering evidence-based guidance to patients and families across New Jersey and beyond.
My Journey: Decades of Global Expertise
Since 1985, I have immersed myself in the dynamic field of physical therapy, mastering advanced techniques and adapting to the unique needs of patients across cultures. My career spans two pivotal chapters:
1. North Africa: Building Foundations in Comprehensive Rehabilitation (10+ Years)
For over a decade, I served as a Lead Supervisor at the largest rehabilitation hospital in North Africa, a regional hub for complex medical cases. In this role, I oversaw multidisciplinary teams and treated patients grappling with:
Trauma & Orthopedics: Fractures (knees, arms, vertebral columns), post-surgical rehabilitation, and degenerative joint conditions.
Sports Injuries: Acute and chronic injuries in soccer, basketball, and track athletes, from amateur teens to professional competitors.
Neurological Disorders: Stroke recovery, spinal cord injuries, and multiple sclerosis.
Rheumatology: Arthritis, lupus, and autoimmune-related mobility challenges.
Pediatric & Geriatric Care: Developmental delays in children and age-related conditions like osteoporosis.
This high-pressure environment honed my ability to innovate under resource constraints while maintaining compassionate, patient-centered care.
