OVERVIEW
The physiotherapy department caters to the needs of old and needy patients in and around Prasanthi Nilayam.
We see many types of patients who require real rehabilitation as the only option of treatment, and especially the rural people with common ailments of musculoskeletal system where they cannot go to specialty hospitals as these services are mostly available in urban areas. Here in SSSGH Physiotherapy department is offering all kinds of rehabilitation methods and equipments for treating the problems.
Here in our department we make them from “Unable to Able” with timed interventions combined with divine blessings of Baba. We also conduct meetings on “Physio Need” for patients and thus educate the other medical specialties in GH.
