I am your host physiotherapist may ignite away well its September is considered to be the world physiotherapy day so I thought on this occasion.
I would be talking more about what were my experiences my journey being a physiotherapist. Physiotherapy profession as such has given me a lot and I owe a lot of thing to this profession many times I feel that people don't know what exactly is the role of a physiotherapist what we learn through the process and how entire thing goes so I thought let me make you this more information in this Article.
I will also talk about what you can expect and what when my intention with this site and this article so this article is going to be kind of interactive in a way where I would be sharing my story so make sure you read this article till the end back in 2013 that was the time when I got this admission in the college officer therapy well I hail from the small town in Mena named Peshawar but lucky to get this admission in this college named JIPS a physiotherapy college.
I still remember the day when I take this admission. I was so happy that I was feeling that I was the luckiest person in this world.
Therapist was one of my dream and when it came true I was just on the
top of the world to get this admission in the college of physiotherapy I had to
give this pre-medical entrance examination test and through that I got this admission
in this College the course was of four and half years four years was the study
and six month is the duration for internship .
It comprises of physiotherapy and musculoskeletal pain
management physiotherapy in neurosciences, physiotherapy in cardio respiratory
disorders, And
physiotherapy in community health after finishing all these four years we had
the six months of duration of internship where we had to work hands-on on
patients in our Hospital itself this was the experience rich time we got the
opportunity to see patients with different multiple problems ranging from
musculoskeletal disorders structures arthritis neurological disorders cardio respiratory
disorders .
We had postings in ICU then post-surgical ward many things after
finishing my four and half years of bachelor's and physiotherapy course, I thought
I need to know more and get more deeper into the subject and that's why I chose
to do my masters in neurosciences this was a two years course very intensive
clinically we had to see patients at the same time we had to study so it was
almost equivalent to working in a hospital apart from that.
I was totally in word in the rehabilitation process of the
patients who were admitted others had this post-surgical journey after finishing
my phone and half your course and two years course of masters and neuro
sciences where I got lucky to be the topper and the college I moved to
Bangalore and this time I was thinking what new I can do with my experience and
this knowledge of physiotherapy since I had already worked in the space of
physiotherapy in hospital.
I wanted to get into
more into the clinical setup that's why I chose to work in a private
physiotherapy center that was the time I got to know how to interact with patients
when you yourself are responsible for getting patients healing them because
there it was completely under surgeons guidance but now I was on my own I had
to answer each and every questions that patients had and I have to give them
results this experience was absolutely life-changing.
I had to stay so much on the top of all the basics that I
should know so that I can answer all the queries and questions that patients
have related to their problem that from then till now I have been practicing
and seeing patients starting from neurological disorders musculoskeletal
disorders and also child's with developmental delay know the core thinks that
physiotherapy has taught me is one being resilient anything that I learned from
being physiotherapist is never give up there are times when you don't get
results there are times when you see failures.
When
patients is not able to see the result
When the patient is not able to see or give the results that
you want them to get you need to collaborate with your patients and then walk
along with them and involve them in getting the results that are expected
mostly the goals of physiotherapy comprises of getting back to the normal
moments because it's related to movement disorders improving the mobility of
the patient is the ultimate goal and in order to improve that mobility
sometimes or associated symptoms like restricted range of motion pain and also
stiffness are something that causes hindrance in the recovery process so as a
physiotherapist it's a responsibility that we have to ensure that these particular
hindrance doesn't come on the way of recovery and third most important thing,
I learned from being
a physiotherapist is always look at the possibilities looking at the possibilities
looking and the future helps you to stay motivated in a longer run when a
physiotherapy is going on it is possible that you have to give more days compared
to any other condition where you just take some medical pills and you would be
fine but in physiotherapy it's not like that there cover process could last for five days sometimes
five weeks sometimes five months and even sometimes five years depending on
what condition you are treating hence is very important to look always towards the
possibilities towards the brighter side so that you cannot get lost in the failures
or else the hindrance that you face in today's time and the best part you know
what is of being a physiotherapist we get to spend lot of time with our
patients we become friends we talk to each other I get to hear their stories of
how the things happened what were their experiences in hospital in clinical
setup how they recovered what were their motivation what they dint like there
are lots of stories and this helps us to get better insights in the needs and
requirements of the patient and the relationship that we build with our
patients that's the best part.
I know I have my
patients whom I treated seven years back six years back but still we are such a
good friends and always in contact and whenever we talk we have so many things
to talk about now the reason why I started his world physiotherapy blog you know why well this particular incident
happened .
When I was working in this clinical setup manager in my new job
I had one patient who came to me and she had this neck pain so I suggested her
taking ultrasound therapy and some of the exercises what she did in front of me
you know she opened her phone sourced in Google what is ultrasound and then
after reading that entire article she agreed to go for this therapy that time I
was little annoyed I felt why she is not able to trust me this particular
thought kept on going my head over so many days I was thinking why it is so
that patients are not able to trust us these days that was the time.
I realized that it's not their fault it's just Google or its
Internet is such a vast source of information we all are habituated to go to
internet for looking for the solutions for our queries and if
I have to build a
better relationship with the patients or as people like you
I have to be there and that was the time
I decided that I would be creating a
Platform where we would be sharing all
The information related to health so
That people like you can get all the
Information and answers to the queries
That you have in your But not only information the entire mission
is to show you that Indian health care system is working towards making your

social media negative stories spread faster although there are some quacks
