Online Physiotherapy Video Consultation.

Physiotherapy is being widely used as a 10-day treatment, before concluding that spine surgery is a necessity. In many such cases, only Ultrasound Therapy and Interferential Therapy are administered for the entire treatment and then the patient is informed  "Physiotherapy did not help, so surgery is the only option". It should be clear to patients that in cases of severe disc compression / spondylitis /nerve impingement / stenosis, just 10 days of Electrotherapy can not do wonders. In all such spine related problems, physical approach to treatment just acts as a catalyst to natural recovery and must be followed for a long period of time. Mechanical changes of the spine can not be corrected unless mechanical re-alignment is done. Electrotherapy must be used along with or as an alternative to medication to reduce inflammation and pain but  not as a complete treatment.  Many practitioners restrict physical activity completely during the acute phase o...

http://www.physicalhealthconsultants.com/the-physio-way.html Everyone who has pain or numbness in leg, comes in with a self-diagnosed SCIATICA on mind. Many patients even know the treatment to be done - Traction and Diathermy. Sciatic pain is one which radiates from the origin of Sciatic Nerve in the Lumbar Spinal region and radiates down to the legs. Mostly it may radiate down on only one leg. This sciatic pain is sometimes mimicked by another condition "Piriformis Syndrome".  Piriformis  is a small muscle in the upper gluteal region. This muscle may get over stressed and spasmodic due to sedentary jobs or may even have structural variations since birth. Sciatic nerve passing under / through the muscle gets compressed due to the above mentioned stress or structural variation. This leads to discomfort / tingling through the Sciatic Nerve route. This condition is easy to treat once correctly diagnosed. Manual muscle release, Cryotherapy. Stretches and ...

Some common questions asked by neck pain patients : 1. Should I use a Cervical Collar ? 2. Should I sleep without pillow ?  3. Should I take any pain killers ? 4. Should I stop all exercise ? It should be understood that all cases can not be generalised. If you have pain due to muscle spasm or regular use of computers, then you may continue with all exercise,continue to use pillow,avoid pain killers and do not need a collar. If there is a problem with vertebral alignment like changes in normal cervical curvature or disc compression /bulge then it needs to be handled more carefully. In very few cases pain killers and cervical collar may be required. Most people may be able to continue moderate form of exercise but exercise should be prescribed after elaborate assessment. Exercise prescription should be done only by a Physical Therapist. Patient should have no confusion about the fact that only a qualified Physical Therapist prescribes exercise. Teaching...

http://www.physicalhealthconsultants.com/the-physio-way.html  Once upon a time, your dad had a friend; he happened to be a doctor.You called him doctor uncle. Always well dressed, respected by everyone and he had a sense of humour too. He knew you since you were born and seemed to be an encyclopedia on your grandmother's health issues. A person so close to the family yet a thorough professional when it mattered.  This doctor knew few other families in your locality and had no plans to expand his "BUSINESS" beyond his capacity. He never charged a rupee from your gardener or driver, instead would take out sample medicine from his drawer and give it to them for free.  Did he even know the definition of "Executive Health Check Up" or "Corporate Gifts"?  You have fond memories of him right but does your child know any such doctor uncle?   It is not a luxury, it is a necessity for every family to have a family doctor. Your physician may be from ...

2014, we moved to a new address.Started afresh in a new name. Continued our old school philosophy of being friends with patients. Thanks to all patients who kept trusting our ways,and ensured the transition was smooth. 

These days we see different electromagnetic pain relief products being sold through tv and online.They claim to be free from any side effects,which depends on the usage. If it was so easy to place electrodes anywhere on the body or use LASER on your own why would medical professionals need years of education? Knowledge of Anatomy and physiological effects of  all such treatments is necessary for proper usage. We do not recommend self use of any such equipment.

Most cases of tail bone pain, do not relate it to any particular cause.Very few cases get it due to injury.Patients may not know what to do with the pain.X ray may help in ruling out a fracture, in case of injury related coccyinia.Most often physiotherapy, particularly thermal modalities may be very helpful.At times  treatment may help the pain only temporarily and may take a few weeks to show significant improvement.In India coccyx manipulation is not a very popular technique but this is one effective way of treatment if performed.Very rarely, Coccygectomy or removal of tail bone by surgical intervention may become necessary. I am writing this after meeting a case with Idiopathic Coccydinia.He has suffered for 9 months with no relevant treatment done.He did not know that physiotherapy may help.

Improve your choices to improve your health It is a trend catching up in India, most manufacturers have at least one model of auto geared cars.These cars are very popular in many parts of the world but in India because of less fuel effeciency,nobody loved them so far.First auto cars entered Indian market around the same time as the launch of legendary Maruti 800. At that time they were known as cars for physically challenged.They required permission from various departments to be brought on road. These cars are good for a simple reason, that is less physical and mental stress. Stress levels in city traffic are high.It is easier to manoeuvre cars without gears, so the active involvement of central nervous system is eased up. Coming to physical stress,when your feet are constantly moving between accelerator, clutch and gear you are actually using the entire leg.Stress on hip,knee,ankle,heel and toes can not be avoided.Depending on good or bad techniques of driving,different people hav...
