Condition Treated: Disc Prolapse

Experience:

I heard about AktivHealth from a business contact who profusely recommended the European developed facility to me. I was suffering from ‘L4/L5 issues’ in my back which was resulting in severe pain in my right leg. Though I had visited a medical center earlier and met a physiotherapist to get treated, the experience did not result in any meaningful long-term result. Ironically, the advice recommended was 8 days of complete bed rest which was at a variance of what I actually needed.

At AktivHealth, the issue was diagnosed quickly and accurately by Dr. Mueller (MD) and his team and the treatment plan formulated accordingly. The prescribed plan was to address the root cause of the problem which involved heavy physiotherapy in a progressive manner. The quality of care right from the diagnosis by Dr. Mueller to the implementation of my treatment plan delivered by my therapist Ms. Pallavi was excellent and thoroughly professional. After the physiotherapy sessions, my problem has almost disappeared and I have a better understanding of the stretching and strengthening exercises which motivates me to follow the regimen as advised. Without a doubt, the western approach is more proactive since it addresses the root problem as compared to ‘rest in the bed’ approach.
