Haiting

Haiting is a Principal Physiotherapist with over 10 years of clinical experience, with a focused expertise in vestibular rehabilitation, dizziness, and balance disorders. She works closely with individuals experiencing vertigo, imbalance, and age-related mobility challenges, helping them restore confidence, stability, and independence in daily life.

She graduated with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) from the University of Queensland in 2012 and began her career at Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH). During her time there, she developed extensive experience managing complex cases across vestibular disorders, musculoskeletal injuries, neurological conditions, post-operative rehabilitation, and geriatric care in inpatient, outpatient, and emergency department settings.

Haiting later served as the Outpatient Physiotherapy Lead at the TTSH Geriatric Clinic, where she led initiatives to strengthen rehabilitation pathways for older adults and upskill physiotherapy teams in evidence-based geriatric care. She also spearheaded tele-rehabilitation services within the geriatric clinic, delivering remote exercise programmes and home-exercise progression sessions for older adults. She has completed the MOH Telemedicine e-Training certification, equipping her with the knowledge to deliver safe and structured virtual rehabilitation.

Her rehabilitation philosophy emphasises strength, functional resilience, and fall prevention. Haiting incorporates progressive training strategies such as functional strength work, fall-recovery drills, perturbation-based balance training, deadlifts, farmer’s carries, and modified burpees to help patients rebuild both physical capacity and confidence.

She is a certified Otago Exercise Leader (Later Life Training, UK) and a certified personal trainer, reflecting her belief that rehabilitation should extend beyond symptom relief to long-term physical capability and healthy ageing.

As both a clinician and a mother of two, Haiting understands the realities of balancing work, family, and health. Her own journey from being relatively inactive to becoming a strong advocate for exercise reinforces her belief that meaningful progress begins by meeting people where they are and building sustainable habits over time.

A quote she often shares reflects her philosophy toward movement and ageing:

“We’re all old people in training.”
