Musculoskeletal physiotherapy focuses on assessing movement-related concerns and developing rehabilitation plans to support mobility, strength and everyday function. Treatment may include individually selected exercises, movement education and other physiotherapy techniques based on the patient's assessment and goals.
Orthopaedic physiotherapy addresses functional difficulties involving the musculoskeletal system. Assessment helps identify movement limitations and rehabilitation needs, while an individualised plan may incorporate therapeutic exercises and appropriate manual techniques. The treatment approach depends on the person's condition, clinical findings and recovery goals.
Manual therapy involves hands-on techniques selected by a physiotherapist following an appropriate assessment. Depending on the clinical presentation, these techniques may form part of a broader rehabilitation programme alongside movement education and exercise. The choice of technique should reflect the patient's needs and suitability.
Electrotherapy refers to the use of selected electrical modalities as part of physiotherapy care. The choice of modality depends on the clinical assessment, treatment objective and patient suitability. Dr. Nidhi lists electrotherapy application among her professional skills; the specific devices she uses have not been independently verified.
Therapeutic exercise uses planned physical movements to address individual rehabilitation goals, which may include improving strength, mobility and functional performance. Exercises should be selected and progressed according to the patient's assessment, tolerance and response to treatment.
Online physiotherapy allows eligible patients to receive remote guidance and follow-up through digital consultations. Depending on the condition, a physiotherapist may review movement, explain exercises and monitor reported progress. Remote consultation suitability should be determined individually, and an in-person assessment may be necessary.
Posture and movement assessment helps a physiotherapist understand how a person performs everyday movements and identify relevant functional limitations. Findings can inform an individualised exercise and education plan. Assessment and recommendations should be tailored to the patient's symptoms, activities and rehabilitation needs.
Injury prevention education can help patients understand movement habits, activity management and appropriate exercise techniques. Physiotherapists may provide practical guidance relevant to work, daily activities and physical exercise. Recommendations should reflect each person's circumstances, health status and functional capacity.
Rehabilitation progress monitoring involves reviewing a patient's response to treatment and adjusting the plan when needed. Tracking functional changes and exercise tolerance helps guide decisions about progression. Dr. Nidhi's supplied CV lists patient progress documentation and treatment protocol modification among her professional responsibilities.
Mobility and strength rehabilitation aims to address functional limitations through individually selected therapeutic activities. A physiotherapist can assess movement, establish suitable goals and modify exercises in response to progress. The programme should be appropriate to the patient's condition and performed within safe, clinically advised limits.
