Clinical Standards

Our Evidence-Based Approach

At Physynex, clinical quality is at the core of everything we do. We combine advanced diagnostic tools with evidence-based rehabilitation protocols to deliver predictable, high-standard patient outcomes.

UK-Standard Triage (Delivered in Chennai)

We adapt the UK's rigorous First Contact Practice (FCP) assessment model—drawn from our founder's clinical practice in the UK—directly to our operations in Chennai, India, ensuring safe and accurate orthopedic screening.

Objective Force Measurement

We test joint range of motion, muscle endurance, and limb strength balance to base your progress on hard data rather than guesswork.

Evidence-Based Loading

We implement progressive loading protocols (such as Rathleff or Alfredson) backed by peer-reviewed sports medicine research.

Pathology Overview

Understanding Post-Operative Spinal Therapy

Recovery from spine surgeries—including lumbar discectomy, spinal fusion, laminectomy, or decompression—requires a carefully phased physiotherapy approach.

Rehabilitation must balance protecting the surgical healing site with gradually rebuilding core support, neural mobility, and daily movement capacity.

Our specialized post-surgical rehabilitation in Chennai guides you safely from early mobilization to walking recovery and functional lifting.

Modalities Offered

Treatment Approaches

  • Gentle neural mobilization and scar tissue management
  • Deep core flexor and lumbar stabilizer muscle retraining
  • Safe, structured walking and gait retraining protocols
  • Staged lifting and bending retraining based on bone healing

Assessment Focus

What We Measure

  • Coordination with surgical timescales and protocols
  • Gait retraining and core muscle activation work
  • Safe functional movement and lifting progression

FAQs

Clinical Q&A

When can I start physiotherapy after back surgery?

Gentle walking and deep core exercises often start within 2 to 4 weeks, while loaded strengthening begins after 6 to 12 weeks of bone healing.

Why do my legs still feel tight after surgery?

The nerves may take time to recover from pre-surgical compression. Gentle nerve gliding exercises help restore normal nerve flexibility.

What is log-rolling?

It is a technique where you roll your body as a single unit (keeping your back straight) when turning in bed, avoiding spinal twisting.
