About Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy, also known as physical therapy, is a specialized healthcare profession focused on restoring, maintaining, and maximizing a patient's movement, function, and overall well-being. Performed by a Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation specialist, it involves a holistic assessment and the application of evidence-based techniques to treat injuries, disabilities, and pain. Treatment plans are highly personalized and may include manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, electrotherapy modalities, and patient education. The primary goal is to enhance mobility, reduce pain, prevent further injury, and improve quality of life without relying solely on medication or surgery. It is a cornerstone of rehabilitative care for a wide range of musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiopulmonary conditions.

PATIENT REVIEW

Saanvi Verma, a 28-year-old software developer...

Saanvi Verma, a 28-year-old software developer and avid runner, began experiencing sharp, debilitating pain in her right hip and lower back six months ago. The pain, which she initially dismissed as muscle soreness, gradually worsened to the point where she could no longer run or sit for long periods at her desk. An MRI revealed a mild lumbar disc bulge and significant muscle imbalances from her sedentary job and repetitive running form. Her orthopedist recommended physiotherapy to avoid surgery. Saanvi's treatment involved manual therapy for pain relief, core stabilization exercises, and a gradual gait re-education program for running. Over 12 weeks, her pain subsided from an 8/10 to a 1/10. She emotionally transitioned from feeling frustrated and 'broken,' fearing her active life was over, to feeling empowered and knowledgeable about her body. She has since returned to running with a modified, stronger technique and feels more resilient than before her injury.
