Common Inquiries

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about your first physical therapy visit? We have compiled responses to the most common queries from our patients.

No, a doctor's referral is not mandatory. You can consult Dr. Manikandan directly for a physical assessment and diagnostic review of your pain. If you have prior medical reports, MRI scans, or doctor prescriptions, please bring them along.

We recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing (such as t-shirts, track pants, or athletic shorts). This ensures that the therapist can easily examine the affected joint (like the knee, shoulder, or neck) and that you can perform stretches comfortably.

The initial consultation and evaluation take approximately 45 to 60 minutes, which includes a physical assessment and initial therapy. Subsequent treatment sessions usually last between 30 to 50 minutes depending on the complexity of your recovery plan.

This varies significantly based on your diagnosis, the severity of pain, and how long you have had the symptoms. Acute conditions might recover in 3 to 5 sessions, while chronic issues or post-surgical joints might require 8 to 12 sessions. Dr. Manikandan will provide a clear timeline during your first visit.

The primary objective of physiotherapy is to relieve pain, not cause it. Some manual mobilization techniques or stretches might cause mild discomfort or healthy fatigue as we restore stiff joints. We monitor your pain threshold closely and adjust the treatment intensity to ensure complete safety and comfort.
