Fawzi started his journey into rehab as a fitness instructor before fitness was fashionable. An opportunity to train a patient with guidance from a physiotherapist opened his eyes to the value of exercise.

Following a 4-year stint with Singapore Airlines as a Cabin Crew, Fawzi became a Sports Trainer in a private sports clinic and later with Geylang United Football Club (before it changed to Geylang International) providing massage and rehab for patients and athletes.

Moving on, he became the 1st sports trainer in a hospital (CGH) in 2003 but still continued his duties with Geylang United FC. His passion for rehab and sports saw him join the Football Association of Singapore in 2009 where he stayed on until 2016.

After that, Fawzi became a member of Team Singapore Medical when he joined the Singapore Sports Institute. Through his work at FAS and SSI, Fawzi was involved with many sports tournaments and major games providing massage and managing injuries to athletes

  • Asian Football Confederation tournaments and qualifiers around Asia (2009-2014)
  • Youth Asian Games (Nanjing China 2014)
  • SEA Games (2009, 2011, 2015,2017,2019)
  • Asean Para Games (2015, 2017)
  • Asian Para Games (2014 Incheon, South Korea)
  • Asian Games (2018 Jakarta, Indonesia)
  • Asean University Games (2022 Udon Rachatani, Thailand)

He continues to work with athletes and non-athletes as he sees exercise as an integral part of recovering from ailment.

Being passionate about physical activity and exercise, he will make time for his own exercises. He has a saying..”It’s a sin for a trainer not to train”. Exercise regime constitutes cycling, swimming and strength training, be it weights or calisthenics.

His knowledge in various massage techniques, strength conditioning and injury management makes him one of a few trainers to be able to manage an athlete from an acute injury all the way to returning to field of play.

HAND THERAPY
One of the few clinics in Singapore with specialist hand therapists on staff.

  • Hand therapy is a specialist discipline that most physiotherapy clinics simply do not have and cannot provide.
  • Hand therapists and hand occupational therapists covers injuries and post-surgical recovery of the hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder girdle — requiring a different level of clinical training.
  • We also do customized thermoplastic splinting for the fingers, hand, wrist, forearm, elbow and even shoulders and knees too
  • For post-operative hand and wrist recovery, this isn’t optional – it can be significant movement, power, stability and stamina outcomes for someone who did hand therapy versus someone who didnt.

ALREADY SEEING A PHYSIO OR CHIRO?
If your current treatment isn't moving you forward — find out why.

  • Many of our patients come to Phoenix Rehab as a second opinion — after months at another clinic with limited progress.
  • We’ll dive and assess in depth to find out the true cause of the injuries and conditions (clarity and knowledge is half the battle!), work and communicate with your existing doctor, and tell you plainly what we think and know…and treat you of course, the best we can.
  • Many patients are discharged around 70 to 80% recovery. We aim to help you recover as fully as your body allows, the same way we would want for our own family. 
  • If you’ve been told to “just manage it” or “learn to live with it” — come in. You may have more options than you’ve been told.
