Condition Treated: Movement Disorder & Scoliosis
Experience:
We came to know about AktivHealth from our German friends. Our son has a rare genetic condition known as “NGLY-1 deficiency”. We registered at the center in June 2013 for pediatric physiotherapy and to consult Dr. Gerd Mueller (MD). Benno was assigned to Ms. Aditi Midha, a pediatric physiotherapist.
Before AktivHealth, we did home-based physiotherapy for our son for a long time. AktivHealth’s physiotherapy is on par with the treatment we received in Germany. In fact, scheduling is more efficient here.
Now, Benno has a stronger neck and his legs are beginning to dissociate. The treatment approach at AktivHealth is different from another Delhi-based physiotherapist who provided physiotherapy for our son before we came to AktivHealth. I do not think of the approach as western vs. Indian but rather standardized vs. individualized. We appreciate that Aditi takes her cues from our son instead of implementing a standard program.
