The Physio Active clinical team is led by highly professional and ethical clinicians, Dr D.M. Manoj and Dr M.R. Zulfi, each with more than two decades of clinical expertise in treating sports and orthopedic injuries. They also actively propagate the benefits of physical therapy through various means to all sections of the community.
Through our deep experience, we know that the human body has a natural tendency to heal with the aid of natural elements such as heat, cold and electrical energy; Physiotherapy proves this convincingly. Along with this, physical therapy also leverages movements and exercises prescriptions. Additionally, technology has a huge role in making our services more effective and giving superior outcomes when tailored to the individual and handled by an expert and compassionate therapist.
