Dr. Mamak Shakib has been in clinical practice for more than three decades and works with individuals experiencing chronic musculoskeletal and posture-related conditions. Her clinical focus is the Zebra community—people with connective tissue disorders such as EDS, HSD, MCAS, and related conditions.

She is a rehabilitation clinician with advanced training in Postural Neurology and Developmental Neuro-Kinesiology (DNS), helping her understand how the brain organizes balance, stability, coordination, and movement. She is also trained in pelvic floor dysfunction, pelvic stability, and Empowered Relief, integrating these principles into every interaction—whether in person or through virtual sessions.

Her professional dedication is helping people with joint hypermobility learn how to build stability, improve posture, compensate for reduced proprioception, and safely apply movement principles during everyday activities that commonly trigger flare-ups. She also teaches people how to use the natural systems they are born with to help regulate the nervous system, including the vagus nerve and related mechanisms.

Her communication style uses practical explanations, analogies, and real-life examples that help people “see,” “feel,” “predict,” and “prevent” movement patterns that might otherwise seem random or unpredictable.

Dr. Shakib believes that freedom in health comes when people become their own experts in movement and stability. Every interaction is designed to help them better understand their bodies so they can move with greater confidence and independence.
