TESTIMONIAL

Vishal Kale says,
I consulted Dr. Zahra Shirazi for my shoulder muscle injury 2 months ago. She listened to my problem carefully and then started with different types of exercises. Dr. Zahra also started needle therapy. Gradually, she increased the intensity of her treatment. She assured me about her treatment. My pain is drastically reduced now and I am satisfied with her treatment. I have referred my friend also to her.

Jinesh Jain says,
Since last week I am consulting Dr. Zahra for my back pain and ankle pain. Though she is well experienced and busy, she gives ample of time to understand her patients concerns and explains them about the treatment. Also she takes followup with her patients whether her treatment is properly followed or not. Out of my 2 problem my back pain is completely stopped now. I am happy to see the progress. Dr. Zahra takes reasonable charges. I strongly recommend her to all.

Prashant Rathi says,
I was suffering from my leg muscle pain since last 2 years for which I am consulting Dr. Zahra. She has a deep knowledge in her subject and she diagnoses the problem correctly. Her treatment is also effective and my pain is reduced up to much extent. I am feeling much better now. Highly recommended doctor.

Seema Punjabi says,
Almost 2 years ago I fell down due to which there was a hair line crack in my lower back. I stay in abroad. Here my daughter took me to Dr. Zahra for my back pain and neck pain. Her treatment is very effective. I feel much better now. Dr. Zahra maintains a neat and clean clinic. I am really impressed with her quality of services.

Dolly Khemani says,
My hand got fractured as it was stuck in the lift. I consulted many doctors and all of them said ' it wont get cured now.' I consulted Dr. Zahra for the same and she explained me about the treatment. She is co-operative and sincere towards her work. Dr. Zahra treated it properly and my hand got cured completely. I can do my routine work now. Naturewise Dr. Zahra is a good person. For my knee pain I am planning to consult her. My blessings are always there with her.

Ajay Kumar says,
My right shoulder was dislocated for which I consulted Dr. Zahra. She is a good human being. I got cured with her treatment and also can go to my gym regularly. Dr. Zahra is a good doctor and I recommend her strongly. May God bless her long and healthy life.

Zainab Patwa says,
I was experiencing knee problems for more than 4 years. I had consulted many doctors in pune and they all had recommended surgery. I did not consider undergoing surgery. Then Dr. Zahra was recommended to me and within a period of one and a half month, she transformed me from a limping person to someone who could hop, skip and jump from a height! It was a continuous effort (most of the times she put in more effort than me). She builds deep relationships with her patients and is fully committed to her profession (which is her passion). I highly recommend her to anyone withy any kind of joint or muscular problem.

Yogesh Manwani says,
I consulted Dr. Zahra 2 months ago for my lower back pain. She gives personal attention to her patients. Dr. Zahra helped me a lot and my problem is solved completely. I got cured soon than expected. I found her charges quite reasonable. I am satisfied with her treatment.

Shilpa Soni says,
I underwent knee surgery and visited many physiotherapists after the surgery but I was not getting satisfactory results with their treatment. Then I consulted Dr. Zahra for the same. She is the best doctor who explained me about my problem and treatment. I feel very comfortable with her and I could see improvement in my movements. I am still taking the physiotherapy for my leg from Dr. Zahra. I have referred many of my friends to her. Highly recommended doctor.

PHYSIOTHERAPY REHABILITATION & SPORTS MEDICINE CLINIC

Adults ignore minor aches, avoid exercises, and have an improper diet which results in disability years later. Obesity is one of the leading factors leading to joint pain these days. One must not use temporary measures such as ointments, pain killers or massages, but seek specialist's advice and treat the causative factors. Bone density decreases with age, muscles get weaker and discs get thinner. These changes occur as natural wear and tear of the body but can be slowed down if we start exercising, have a balanced diet and some lifestyle modifications. Bones get brittle due to unhealthy lifestyle, physical inactivity, poor exposure to sunlight, smoking and drinking.

OSTEOPOROSIS: It is a silent disease which gradually weakens bones leading to painful and debilitating fragility and fractures. Alcohol, vitamin D deficiency, smoking, malnutrition, low calcium intake, poor eating habits, prolonged use of steroids and sedentary life style can be blamed for the rising cases of osteoporosis. In women, hormonal changes after menopause, genetic predisposition and woman who are on steroids are at a higher risk of developing osteoporosis.

Tips to keep bones strong a) stay alert from a young age. Get a bone density test done once in a while to check bone strength and if any medical intervention is needed b) include adequate amount of calcium in your diet. Milk, yoghurt, cheese, cereals and nuts like almonds are recommended. Consult a doctor and take calcium supplements especially after pregnancy or a major illness c) spend 15 mins in the sun at least thrice a week. Indians are found highly deficient in vitamin D d) exercise regularly to keep bones and muscles healthy. Do weight bearing exercises to strengthen bones, walk and jog every day e) avoid smoking & excessive alcohol consumption. The process of healing is said to be slow among people who smoke & drink excessive alcohol.

Mal alignment of vertebra causes bio mechanical imbalance due to bad posture, muscle weakness or imperfect ergonomics. Trigger points in muscles occur due to constant contraction of muscle fibres in incorrect position. Discogenic back pain occurs due to prolapse of disc between the vertebrae. Neurogenic back pain occurs when nerves are compressed because of excess pressure. Infection, malignancy, congenital or acquired abnormalities are other processes by which back pain may occur. Time for medical advice occurs a) when localized or diffused pain in back or neck does not resolve for more than a week b) when there is travelling, shooting or radiating pain from back to legs or neck to arm c) when there is tingling or numbness in arms or legs d) when there is stiffness in the back or neck in the morning e) when there is pain in the neck or back while one goes to bed f) when there is disturbed sleep because of pain g) when there is associated fever with back pain.

ERGONOMICS: Poor Posture may be caused by wrong habits from daily activities such as sitting on the office chair, staring at the computer, carrying a purse over the shoulder, driving, prolonged standing, caring for small children and sleeping. Poor postures can easily become second nature, causing and aggrevating episodes of back and neck pain and damaging spinal structures.

Steps to improve your posture & ergonomics & mdash; a) identifying the warning signs of back and neck pain caused by poor ergonomics and posture b) keep the body in alignment while sitting in an office chair and standing c) get up and move d) use posture friendly props and ergonomic office chairs while sitting e) use exercises to help prevent injury and promote good posture f) wear supportive footwear while standing g) remember good posture, ergonomics while in motion

Further you are adviced not to go through any surgery of joint pain as it may or may not be successful. Surgery should be the last resort because if it is not successful, it may lead to complications & side effects.

Hence, we treat and cure the patients non-surgically, with the most advanced techniques.
