Pratna Natasha Ram is the CEO and a practitioner at MINDBODYSHEN Integrated Medicine and Wellness Practitioners. Her educational journey began at Douglas College, where she took a particular interest in general sciences, athletic training and rehabilitation. She continued her ambitious pursuit at Simon Fraser University where she studied human biomechanics and kinesiology, which landed her an internship as athletic trainer for Varsity teams at Simon Fraser University.

While at Simon Fraser University, her curiosity steered her into global issues related to public health and human rights, which coincided with a life altering accident. Many physical and personal challenges presented itself, however, it also connected her true undertaking: to support and educate others in her community whole-body and whole-heartedly.

During her studies, she was elected President to lead a group of Canadian medical students into South America, Valedictorian for the graduating class of 2019 and travelled to Asia to complete a doctoral medical internship.
