Orthopaedic Physiotherapy in Dhanori, Pune: Treating Bone, Joint and Muscle Pain Without Surgery
Orthopaedic physiotherapy is a specialised branch of physical therapy that diagnoses and treats musculoskeletal injuries involving bones, joints, muscles and ligaments. At Dr. Nikita’s BONE & SPINE Advanced Physiotherapy Clinic in Dhanori, Pune, treatment is non-surgical and targets the root cause of pain.
Why Pune’s Working Population Is Struggling with Bone and Joint Pain
Pune is one of India’s fastest-growing IT and manufacturing hubs. Thousands of professionals in Hinjewadi, Viman Nagar and Dhanori sit at desks for 8 to 10 hours daily. Sedentary work combined with long commutes on Pune’s uneven roads creates a perfect storm for musculoskeletal problems. According to the Indian Orthopaedic Association, musculoskeletal disorders account for over 20% of all outpatient visits in urban India.
Dr. Nikita Thool, BPTh/BPT, has helped patients from Dhanori, Viman Nagar, Vishrantwadi and surrounding areas recover from bone and joint conditions without relying on long-term painkillers or invasive procedures.
