Shivani is the owner of Wiggles Therapy and a dedicated pediatric physical therapist with over seven years of experience helping children thrive through movement.

Shivani’s journey into pediatric physical therapy began on a different path—she originally pursued pre-med with the goal of becoming a developmental pediatrician. But along the way, she discovered her true calling: working closely with families and making a direct, lasting impact on children’s everyday lives. That passion, combined with a lifelong love of sports and movement, led her to the field of physical therapy.

Throughout her career, Shivani has been driven by the belief that the earliest years of a child’s life are foundational—not just for physical development, but for long-term health and wellness. She is especially passionate about educating families and the broader community on the importance of early movement and gross motor development, particularly in communities where these conversations are often overlooked.

When she’s not working directly with families, Shivani loves sharing both educational and lighthearted content on the Wiggles Therapy Instagram, staying active at the gym, and baking random sweet treats she finds online that look too yummy not to try. She also enjoys spending quality time with her family and is always on the lookout for new places to explore—especially if there’s good food involved.
