In 2017, I had to quit SCMM in the midst, due to severe pain in the back and spasm caused. Later it was diagnosed as a Slip disc - L3 and L4.
After being on complete bed rest for 2 weeks I started mild Physio therapy . It gave me relief but could not return to active running; making me more depressed. Also ortho surgeon advised me to not do active running for atleast 6 months.
I was very frustrated. Then my friend suggested me to visit Dr Abhishek Bangera.
I visited him immediately. He was very receptive about my issues. Explained me about the pain and slip disc in very practical manner and started with corrective exercises.
I was asked for a follow up visit every week ; where my progress was noted. Also I was advised to call immediately or visit if pain increased.
Dr Abhishek and his team were very helpful whenever I called and patiently heard the issues and suggested correction.
Best part about them is that they don’t diagnose solely on basic reports, but practically examine the patient and assess the issue by asking to do various movements.
Slowly I was allowed into slow running with advise to stop, if the pain increased while running and come for follow up.
I started running slowly post 1.5 month of injury and was back in form in a span of 4 months.
Only post they were satisfied that I am all right, was I discharged. He also helped me with exercises so that the pain episodes reduced.
Had it not been for the support of Dr Abhishek; I would have not been confident of running or any physical activity fearing that pain would come again.
Truly as he is considered in the running Circle; Saviour of all runners 😄😄😄
I am always so happy and relieved when I see him volunteering in a running event I participate ; considering that I am in safe hands.
He needs no recommendation for sure ... his actions speaks louder than anyone’s words.
Thanks a lot Dr Abhishek and team 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
In 2016 I twisted my left foot very badly while running and the x-ray showed a hairline metatarsal fracture. I was in plaster cast for a month. On removal of the cast my foot was swollen and walking was difficult. I went to Dr. Bangera for consultation. The first thing that happens when you meet Dr. Bangera is that he puts you at ease. He asked me to do a couple of exercises and I found relief in pain. He asked me to do these exercises every 2 hours daily. For the next one and half months I was a regular at his clinic. Dr. Bangera had enough time for each of his patients. He would very patiently listen to everyone's queries and alley their fears. At the end of the treatment I was perfectly fit to such an extent that I could go on an arduous Himalayan trek of 7 days within 2 months. I still keep in touch with him.
Dr. Bangera in addition to being a great physio is a wonderful human being.
May his tribe grow in number.
I had Knee pain and had problem exercising, especially while bending down.
I had been going to other physios and taking treatment for my knee for almost 1.5 years. It was only after I met Dr. Abhishek Bangera and his team, that I was told that it was a Spinal issue and not a Knee problem.
I was properly coached with specific treatment for my back and within a short span of time, my knee pain drastically came down. Now those exercises are my daily routine and my pain is almost vanished. My running improved and I could run with ease much longer distances.I strongly recommend them for any physiotherapy advice.
They are simply brilliant.
After the ACL reconstruction surgery on my Right Knee, its mandatory to undergo physiotherapy and though I thought it's just a waste of money going through the process, but just after 3 sessions I started feeling the difference and within 9 sessions I realised how wrong I was. Abhishek and his team did a complete study and identified the exercises to which my leg was responding. They helped me understand that it's not just my knee that I should look to strengthen but also my other muscles and my back which I've always ignored. I can really keep going on and on but cannot emphasise enough how well Abhishek and his team helped me recover.
A special mention for Dr. Priya , who was treating me throughout. She kept pushing me to do better and trusted me more than I would myself during the initial sessions which gave me confidence and helped me recover faster.
