Physiotherapy, also referred to as physical therapy, is an allied health profession that makes use of bio-mechanics or kinesiology, manual therapy, exercise therapy, and electrotherapy, to help patients restore, maintain and increase their physical mobility, strength, and function.

patient stories – how sumant found help in portea to provide physiotherapy for her mother?
I availed Portea Physiotherapy service for my mother and would like to inform you about your incredible and extraordinary team member, and my mother’s physiotherapist – Dr. Divya Tickoo.
Divya has been giving physiotherapy sessions, to my mother – Mrs. Suresh Ahuja for about a month now.
Let me start by mentioning here, that I judge people much more, by the strength of their character, and how good a person is as a human being, rather than just their professional expertise, and knowledge in their area of excellence.
In the case of Divya, She has not just proven herself to be a great physiotherapist to my mother but also has talent and expertise by her side.
More importantly, she is a warm-hearted and gentle person with character traits, which are hard to find these days – kindness, grace, empathy, and compassion.
Divya’s physiotherapy sessions have helped my mother immensely over the past 3-4 weeks. Thanks to her consistent support, my mother who has an L3 and D9 compression fracture of the spine, has started walking to the bathroom with the help of a walker, she also helps my mother – walk around the living room of my house, with the help of a walker. She is helping her, persistently with her physiotherapy.
Moreover, Divya has taught my mother, certain physiotherapy exercises to do on her own every day, which she has been doing regularly – and these exercises have been quite helpful, in regaining her leg muscle strength and reducing her pain while walking, and sitting in bed. She is now able to sit on the bed without any pain, over a much longer period of time, than she previously use to, before these sessions started.
I perceive Dr. Divya Tickoo – as one of the best physiotherapists. Her phenomenal competence and skills, combined with her empathy and devotion, to the well-being of the patient, make her an exceptional person.
People like Divya should be acknowledged, appreciated, rewarded, and promoted in every organisation.
