Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is inpatient (IPD) rehabilitation necessary for every patient?

Not always. IPD is helpful when a patient needs closer monitoring, assisted mobility, or more structured daily rehab. The right plan is decided after assessment.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on the condition, severity, and goals. A realistic roadmap is shared after evaluation.

Do you provide caregiver guidance?

Yes. Caregivers are guided on safe assistance and daily routines where needed.

Do you use techniques like taping or NDT in treatment?

Yes, techniques are used based on clinical need and patient comfort, not as a fixed or one-size plan.

Do you guarantee recovery?

Recovery varies for each patient. The focus stays on safe care, measurable improvement, and steady progress.
