Physiotherapy is a branch of modern medical science. It is a drug free approach using various scientific physical agents such as electrotherapy for diagnosis, treatment and prevention, thermal and cold agents, sound waves, LASER etc; and physical activities such as exercises, mobilization techniques etc.

Physiotherapy aims at restoring, maintaining, and maximum utilization of a patient’s mobility, function, for overall well-being. It plays an important role in promoting health and preventing lifestyle disorders. It facilitates healing, pain relief, enhances muscle strength, joint mobility, nerve function etc. to restore function and independence.

Physiotherapy is a critical service in ICU, hospital setup, clinics, OPDs, community, on the sports field, as well as at home.

Physiotherapists treat various conditions arising out of sports injuries, musculoskeletal and neurological issues, neonatal and paediatric care, ageing, cardiorespiratory, women’s health etc.

Some common issues that can be treated by a physiotherapist are: Neck, back and joint pain, swelling and stiffness of joints and muscles, loss of muscle strength, loss of mobility due fractures, post operative care, arthritis, osteoporosis, heart and lung disorders such Myocardial infarction, Bronchitis, Asthma, Neurological conditions such as stroke, spine injury, Parkinson’s, Multiple sclerosis, etc.

A Physiotherapist’s approach to treatment is to treat a ‘person’ rather than “just a body part”.

A Physiotherapist will assess you and make a need-based personalised treatment plan depending on your medical diagnosis, health condition, body mechanics , your existing functions, activities and functional needs at home, workplace and outdoors. The treatment plan includes scientific and evidence-based techniques and a home exercise program which will be customised as per your unique situation, needs and goals.

infancy to old age.
