Physiotherapy & Hydrotherapy Department
The physiotherapy department is a result-oriented, self-driven unit which works in co-operation with the other departments to achieve the best possible care for the patients. Qualified physiotherapists assess, diagnose, treat and prevent injuries and disorders using state-of-the-art equipments and modern techniques.

The range of equipments utilized to help achieve these results includes:
- Ultrasound.

- Traction.
- Infrared Radiation.
Some of the specific conditions that are addressed by the department include:
- Loss of movement control due to neurologic conditions like stroke, brain injuries.
- Musculoskeletal and sport injuries such as muscle sprains, backaches.
- Musculoskeletal pathologies such as Rheumatoid and Osteoarthritis.
- Post surgical conditions like amputations, post natal issues like Vesico-Vaginal Fistulas.
