Your physiotherapy questions, answered.

There is no single physiotherapy fee for Delhi. At City Physiotherapy, fees depend on your condition and individual care needs. Contact the clinic to discuss charges before booking. Ask what the proposed care includes and whether additional treatment costs apply.

At this clinic, the first visit covers your symptoms, medical history, functional difficulties and goals, with relevant reports reviewed when available. An individual treatment plan follows assessment. Ask about proposed options, their limits and how progress will be reviewed.

Coverage depends on your policy, not simply the treatment name. Check the policy wording and Customer Information Sheet, then ask your insurer about outpatient physiotherapy, exclusions, limits and required documents or prior approval. City Physiotherapy has not confirmed insurer empanelment or cashless billing, so verify the payment arrangement before booking.

Home physiotherapy visits are available, mainly in Okhla and nearby areas. Visits to other locations can be discussed with the clinic. Timings and suitability are agreed with each patient. The clinic also provides home exercise guidance when appropriate. Ask which setting is suitable for your condition; a home visit is a separate appointment from exercises you do on your own.

You can contact City Physiotherapy directly to discuss assessment. Relevant medical reports and specialist clearance are requested when clinically indicated, particularly after surgery or fractures or with restrictions. Check separately whether your insurer or treating team requires a referral.

Comfortable clothing that allows movement and appropriate access to the affected area is usually helpful. Ask the clinic if you are unsure what suits your assessment. The clinic confirms a private treatment room or screened area for privacy.

A typical clinic session is approximately 60 minutes, depending on the patient’s needs. That is not the duration of the whole treatment course or a promise for each technique. The number and frequency of visits are decided individually.

Confirm availability and fees, bring relevant medical reports and specialist instructions, and note your symptoms and difficult daily activities. Wear comfortable clothing and discuss any access needs in advance. Toilet facilities are available within the clinic.

Remote appointments can support suitable assessments, exercise reviews and self-management, but they are not interchangeable with an in-person examination for every problem. Suitability, communication needs and a safe private space matter; the clinician may recommend an in-person visit. Online physiotherapy is not confirmed as a City Physiotherapy service, so ask before planning remote care.

City Physiotherapy aims to keep care affordable. Fees depend on your condition and individual care needs. Contact the clinic to discuss charges before booking. Ask what each visit includes and how the plan will be reviewed. Travel and access costs can also affect your budget.

Check qualifications, relevant experience with your concern, clear assessment and consent, practical access and transparent fees. Ask how the plan will be reviewed and when medical referral is needed. Choose care suited to your needs rather than a promise of the fastest cure.

Ask what the assessment suggests, the likely benefits and risks of each option, alternatives including no treatment, and what you can do between visits. Agree how progress will be checked and what happens if you do not improve. Ask who to contact if symptoms change and clarify anything you do not understand before consenting.

Be cautious about guaranteed cures, pressure to buy a fixed package before assessment, unexplained treatment, unclear fees or refusal to discuss qualifications and consent. A useful consultation should explain the proposed plan and its limits and allow questions.

Compare relevant qualifications, assessment approach, access, appointment availability and fees. “Best” depends on your needs. City Physiotherapy is at C-85, Abul Fazal Enclave, near Ramzani Masjid, Okhla, New Delhi 110025. Use Gate 1 at Okhla Vihar Metro Station.

Ask for qualifications, relevant training and applicable professional registration details and verify them with the issuing body where possible. Dr. Salima Rahat has supplied these qualifications: BPT; MPT (Orthopaedics), CCS University; Diploma in Hijama. Credentials have not been independently verified, and registration numbers are not published here.

Many people with back pain are managed without surgery. Suitable care may include staying active, tailored exercise and help with self-management; NICE recommends any manual therapy as part of a plan that includes exercise. City Physiotherapy assesses suitability individually. Physiotherapy cannot guarantee that surgery will be avoided when specialist treatment is necessary.

Dr. Salima Rahat’s main speciality is orthopaedic physiotherapy. The clinic confirms care for back and neck pain, knee and shoulder problems, sports injuries, post-fracture and post-operative recovery, and selected neurological rehabilitation. She also sees children with sports injuries or muscle cramps. Suspected heart-related problems are referred to a physician or cardiologist. Suitability is assessed individually.

Physiotherapy includes assessment, functional goals, exercise and progress review; hands-on treatment may be one part. Massage is a hands-on technique and does not describe the entire rehabilitation process. Ask why any technique is being used in your plan.

Sports injury rehabilitation is offered at the clinic. Assessment considers the injury, activity goals and relevant medical instructions before an individual plan is agreed. A return-to-sport date or outcome cannot be guaranteed.

For osteoarthritis, tailored strengthening and general fitness exercise can reduce pain and improve function over time. Some discomfort can occur when starting; agree how to adjust the programme and report new or worsening symptoms. The clinic assesses joint pain and movement difficulties individually. Physiotherapy does not cure osteoarthritis or promise to regrow cartilage.

City Physiotherapy lists therapeutic exercise, manual therapy and electrotherapy among its services, but has not supplied an equipment inventory. Availability does not establish benefit for every condition: NICE advises against TENS, ultrasound and interferential therapy for low back pain. Ask which intervention is recommended for your problem and what evidence supports it.

Dr. Salima Rahat sees children with sports injuries and muscle cramps. Share your child’s age, symptoms and any relevant reports before booking so she can confirm suitability. Infant care and specialist developmental programmes have not been confirmed; other concerns may need a paediatrician or another specialist.

Age alone does not rule out physiotherapy. Appropriately adapted strength and balance work can support everyday movement and confidence, but activity must suit the person’s health and fitness. Share medical conditions, medicines, recent falls and restrictions. The clinic assesses older adults individually; those with health concerns or a long period of inactivity may need medical advice before starting exercise.

The clinic assesses neck stiffness, cervical radiculopathy symptoms, shoulder pain and restricted shoulder movement. The plan depends on assessment, and further medical evaluation is recommended when symptoms require it.

Need and timing depend on the operation and treating team’s advice. The clinic offers orthopaedic post-operative rehabilitation and reviews relevant instructions and restrictions. Do not assume every procedure requires the same programme.

Physiotherapy can help you discuss movement, work setup and discomfort during daily activities. For neck pain, avoiding long periods in one position can be useful; breaks and comfortable position changes may be more practical than holding yourself rigidly all day. The clinic does not promise a permanent posture correction from one technique.

Headaches have different causes; neck discomfort alone does not identify migraine or a neck-related headache. Seek medical assessment for recurring or worsening headaches. A sudden, extremely severe headache, or headache with new weakness, speech difficulty, confusion or loss of vision, needs emergency care immediately. A specialist headache or migraine service has not been confirmed at this clinic.

At this clinic, assessment includes symptoms, medical history, functional limitations, goals and relevant reports when available. Findings guide suitability and an individual plan. Referral is made when further investigation or treatment outside physiotherapy scope is required.

You can discuss activity demands and rehabilitation goals after an injury. A specialist performance-testing or coaching programme has not been confirmed at this clinic, and improved sporting results are not guaranteed.

Joint mobility, strength and functional rehabilitation are part of the clinic’s confirmed care. Explain the activities you want to return to, such as walking, stairs or household tasks. Appropriate goals and expected progress depend on individual assessment.

There is no reliable universal number of visits. The condition, functional limitations and response matter. At the first assessment, discuss what change you are aiming for and when it will be reviewed. Report worsening symptoms rather than waiting for a package to finish.

Frequency is set case by case after assessment and reviewed with progress. Ask why that interval is suggested, what you should do between visits and when the plan will be reassessed. There is no standard daily or weekly schedule for everyone.

Discuss strength, movement and activity goals with your physiotherapist, including how to manage your return to everyday tasks or sport. A rehabilitation plan cannot guarantee that an injury will never happen again.

Follow the agreed plan, ask for clarification when exercises are unclear and report your response honestly. Discuss barriers such as work or caregiving responsibilities. Doing more treatment or harder exercises without guidance is not a shortcut to guaranteed faster recovery.

Use the exercises recommended for your individual assessment. Ask about the amount, frequency, acceptable symptoms and when to stop and seek advice. This website does not prescribe a universal routine for every diagnosis.

There is no single percentage that applies to every condition or goal. The clinic has not supplied audited outcome statistics, so no success rate is claimed. Discuss what improvement would mean for you and how it will be assessed.

Agree on review points with your physiotherapist based on your condition and goals. If you are not improving, ask for reassessment; do not continue indefinitely without a clear reason. New or worsening symptoms may need earlier medical review.

Do not ignore new symptoms, exceed specialist restrictions or change medicines because of a web page. Ask which activities are appropriate for your condition and tell the clinician if a technique or exercise causes concern.

Ask for a review of symptoms, function and the current plan. The clinic adjusts treatment according to response and refers for medical evaluation when indicated. Lack of progress should prompt a discussion, not an automatic promise that more sessions will solve it.
