Physiotherapy in Indirapuram for back, neck & knee pain

Physiotherapy for pain that has stayed too long — back pain and sciatica, a stiff neck, knee arthritis, a frozen shoulder, heel pain — and for recovery after surgery, a fracture or a stroke. Two physiotherapists cover 9 am to 6 pm, and because they work inside the hospital, an orthopaedic surgeon, X-ray and ultrasound are in the same building when your pain needs more than exercise.

लंबे समय से चले आ रहे दर्द के लिए फ़िज़ियोथेरेपी — कमर दर्द और साइटिका, गर्दन की अकड़न, घुटनों का गठिया, फ्रोज़न शोल्डर, एड़ी का दर्द — और सर्जरी, फ्रैक्चर या लकवे के बाद की रिकवरी के लिए। सुबह 9 से शाम 6 बजे तक दो फ़िज़ियोथेरेपिस्ट उपलब्ध हैं, और अस्पताल के भीतर होने से, ज़रूरत पड़ने पर हड्डी रोग विशेषज्ञ, एक्स-रे और अल्ट्रासाउंड इसी इमारत में हैं।

7,500+ physiotherapy sessions this year — for outpatients and every ward in the building.

Animated guides

Long-standing pain, explained

Each animation shows what goes wrong and the kind of exercise we use to fix it. They explain; they are not a do-it-yourself plan — the right exercise, dose and progression come from an assessment.

Animation: on hands and knees, the back slowly rounds up with the head down, then dips gently with the head up, with the lower back highlighted.

What actually helps long-standing back pain?

For most back pain that has lasted weeks or months, movement and strength help more than rest. Scans often show age-related changes that do not explain the pain, and bed rest tends to make it worse. A graded exercise programme — gentle mobility first, then strength — is the first treatment guidelines recommend, with pain relief to help you move.

How we help: We settle the pain with heat, IFT or TENS and manual therapy, then build a strengthening plan in our exercise area with a short home routine. Back pain with leg weakness, numbness around the groin or bladder trouble needs a doctor urgently — our emergency is open 24x7.

Animation: a person at a laptop slumps with the head pushed forward and the neck and lower back light up red; then sits tall with the chin back and both turn green.

Why do my neck and back hurt after a day at the desk?

Hours in one position — head pushed forward towards the screen, back rounded — tire the neck and upper-back muscles, and stiffness builds through the day. No single posture is perfect; what helps most is changing position often, setting the screen at eye level, and keeping the neck and upper back strong. Cervical spondylosis on an X-ray is common with age and often not the cause of the pain.

How we help: We treat the stiff, painful areas with manual therapy, cervical traction where suitable, heat and electrotherapy, then teach a short desk routine — chin tucks, shoulder-blade squeezes and a movement break every half hour or so.

Animation: standing up from a chair without using the hands, then sitting down slowly, with the front-of-thigh muscles highlighted.

Can exercise really help knee arthritis?

Yes — exercise is the first treatment recommended for knee osteoarthritis at any age, whatever the X-ray shows. Stronger thigh and hip muscles take load off the joint, which eases pain and stiffness and makes stairs and getting up from a chair easier. It works when done regularly, and some discomfort while exercising is normal and not harmful.

How we help: We ease pain with heat, IFT and ultrasound therapy, then build strength step by step in our exercise area. If the knee needs a surgeon's opinion, the orthopaedic OPD is in the same building — and if you do need a knee replacement, we help you prepare for it and rehabilitate you after.

Animation: leaning forward with one hand on a table, the sore arm hangs and swings gently back and forth, then in small circles.

How does physiotherapy help a frozen shoulder?

A frozen shoulder stiffens slowly over months — painful first, then stiff, then gradually freeing up — and is more common in people with diabetes. Physiotherapy cannot rush every stage, but it eases the pain, keeps the shoulder moving within comfort, and helps you win back movement faster once the stiffness starts to ease.

How we help: Gentle pendulum and stretching exercises matched to the stage, heat and electrotherapy for pain, manual therapy to free the joint, and a home plan you can do a few times a day.

Animation: close-up of a foot rising slowly onto the toes, which rest on a rolled towel, with the band under the sole highlighted as it tightens.

Why does my heel hurt with the first steps in the morning?

Sharp heel pain on the first steps after sleep or a long sit is the classic sign of plantar fasciitis — an overloaded band of tissue under the foot. It is common in people who stand for long hours, in runners, and with weight gain. Calf and foot strengthening, stretches and supportive footwear help most people, though recovery often takes a few months.

How we help: We combine heel raises with a rolled towel under the toes, calf stretches, taping and ultrasound therapy with advice on footwear and standing time — and look for other causes if the heel is not improving.

Animation: the forearm rests on a table; the other hand helps lift a small dumbbell, then the wrist lowers it slowly, with the forearm muscles near the elbow highlighted.

Do I need to play tennis to get tennis elbow?

No — most people with tennis elbow have never played. It is an overloaded tendon on the outer side of the elbow, from repeated gripping, lifting, typing or tool work, and it hurts most when you grip or lift with the palm down. It usually settles over months; slow, controlled strengthening of the wrist muscles is the exercise most often used.

How we help: We ease the pain with taping, manual therapy and electrotherapy, and give you a graded wrist-strength plan with tips to change how you grip and lift at work and at home.

Animation: lying on the back, sliding one heel towards the body and back, bending the knee a little further each time, with the knee angle shaded.

How soon does physiotherapy start after a knee replacement?

Usually the day after surgery, on the ward. The early goals are a knee that straightens fully, bends a little further each day, and lets you walk with support while the swelling settles. Exercises like heel slides do much of the work, and keeping up the home routine between sessions makes the biggest difference to the final result.

How we help: The same physiotherapy team continues from the ward to the OPD, with your orthopaedic surgeon in the same building to review progress.

The journey with us

We find the cause

A full assessment: where it hurts, what makes it worse, how you sit, stand and move, and how strong the muscles around it are. If the pain needs a scan or a surgeon's view, the orthopaedic OPD and X-ray are in the building.

Pain relief first

Heat, IFT or TENS, ultrasound therapy, manual therapy and taping settle the pain, so that you can move and exercise properly.

Strength and movement

Supervised exercises in our exercise area, increased week by week, so the muscles start doing the work the joint has been doing alone.

Keeping it away

A short home routine, changes to how you sit and work, and clear signs for when to come back — so the pain does not return the moment the sessions stop.

Common questions

Do you provide physiotherapy after knee replacement in Indirapuram?

Yes — it starts on the ward the day after surgery and continues in the OPD, with the same team throughout. Rehabilitation is planned into the operation at Healing Tree, not added afterwards, which is why our orthopaedic surgeons and physiotherapists share a campus.

Can I come for back pain without seeing a doctor first?

You can book physiotherapy directly, but we recommend a short OPD visit first — an orthopaedic or neurology opinion rules out the causes that exercise alone would not fix, and the physiotherapist then works to a clear plan.

Is physiotherapy cashless on CGHS?

Physiotherapy sessions advised by a treating doctor are covered on CGHS, Delhi Police, UP-ESIC and other government panels at approved rates; bring the doctor's advice slip and your card.

What are the physiotherapy timings?

Our two physiotherapists cover 9 am to 6 pm, Monday to Saturday, and one of them is on duty on Sundays. Book a time on WhatsApp or through the OPD desk so you are not kept waiting.

How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

It depends on the cause and how long you have had the pain. We set a plan after the first assessment and review it after the first week; the exercises you keep doing at home matter as much as the sessions here.

Do you treat sports injuries?

Yes — running, cycling, cricket, football and gym injuries, and the strength work that prevents the next one. Our Sports Physiotherapy page explains how.
