Her passion for hand therapy began during a clinical placement at Westmead Public Hospital. Lina went on to work exclusively in hand and upper limb therapy in specialist private clinics, managing acute, chronic, and traumatic conditions. She has also worked within a specialised hand unit at Sydney Hospital, gaining valuable experience in complex hand trauma and tendon injuries.
