About Physiotherapist Doctors

Conditions Treated by a Physiotherapist

Low Back Pain

The most common reason for physiotherapy visits globally. Most back pain responds to exercise-based rehabilitation better than surgery.

Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

Progressive shoulder stiffness and pain, common in diabetics and people aged 40-60. Physiotherapy is the primary treatment.

Post-Stroke Rehabilitation

Physiotherapy helps stroke survivors regain movement, balance, walking ability, and independence. Most effective when started early.

Knee Osteoarthritis

Degeneration of knee cartilage causing pain and stiffness. Exercise-based physiotherapy is recommended as first-line treatment before considering surgery.

Sports Injuries

Sprains, strains, ligament tears, and overuse injuries managed with rehabilitation exercises, manual therapy, and return-to-sport protocols.

Physiotherapy and Movement Tips

  • Don't rest injuries for too long — early movement helps healing
  • Do prescribed exercises consistently
  • Use ice for acute injuries, heat for chronic pain
  • Maintain good posture at work
  • Strengthen your core to prevent back pain
  • Warm up before exercise and cool down after

How to Prepare for Your Physiotherapy Session

Before Your Visit

  • Bring any X-ray, MRI, or medical reports related to your condition
  • Wear comfortable, loose clothing that allows access to the affected area
  • List your symptoms — when they started, what makes them worse or better, and what treatments you've tried
  • Bring your orthopaedic surgeon's or doctor's referral note if available

During the Appointment

  • Be honest about your pain level — physiotherapy should challenge you but not cause severe pain
  • Ask for demonstration of exercises and repeat them to ensure correct technique
  • Discuss your activity goals — returning to sport, work duties, or daily activities
  • Mention any other health conditions — diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis — that affect treatment planning

After the Visit

  • Do your prescribed home exercises daily — consistency matters more than intensity
  • Apply ice or heat as instructed after exercises
  • Modify activities as advised — avoid aggravating movements during rehabilitation
  • Track your progress — pain scores, range of motion, and functional milestones help adjust treatment

Questions to Ask Your Physiotherapist

  1. 1.How many sessions will I need?
  2. 2.What exercises should I do at home?
  3. 3.Should I use heat or ice?
  4. 4.Can this be treated without surgery?
  5. 5.When can I return to sport or work?
  6. 6.What caused this and how do I prevent recurrence?

When Should You See a Physiotherapist?

A Physiotherapist helps restore movement and function through exercise, manual therapy, and rehabilitation after injury, surgery, or disease.

  • Back or neck pain lasting more than a week
  • Post-surgery rehabilitation — knee, hip, shoulder
  • Sports injury — sprains, strains, tears
  • Frozen shoulder or tennis elbow
  • Stroke recovery — regaining movement and function
  • Balance problems or fall risk in elderly
  • Chronic pain management

Physiotherapy is most effective when started early. Don't wait for pain to become severe before seeking help.
