Good to know
Questions patients often ask
Which conditions does a neuro physiotherapist treat?
A neuro physiotherapist treats conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord and nerves — including stroke, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy and balance or vestibular disorders. Dr. Richa Shah designs individualised rehabilitation to restore mobility, strength and independence.
Does Dr. Richa Shah offer home visits in Pune?
Yes. Alongside morning and evening clinic OPD, Dr. Richa Shah provides home and hospital visits across Pune for patients with limited mobility or those recovering after surgery or a neurological event.
How soon after a stroke should physiotherapy begin?
Rehabilitation generally begins as early as it is medically safe — often within days, once the person is stable. Early, guided movement supports better long-term recovery. Always follow the treating doctor's advice and arrange a proper assessment.
What is DNS and how can it help me?
Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation (DNS) is a treatment approach based on how babies naturally develop movement and core control. It retrains your deep stabilising muscles and breathing pattern, and is especially helpful for chronic back pain, post-stroke recovery and paediatric cases.
Do you offer aquatic or water-based therapy?
An Aqua Therapy Centre is a planned next step for the practice in Pune. Water's buoyancy allows gentle, low-impact movement — valuable for neuro-rehabilitation, post-surgical recovery and patients with a higher fall risk. Get in touch to register your interest.
