About Us

Luke’s Applying Physiotherapy is an idea that was born in 2014, to provide physiotherapy services in an easily accessable manner. the clinic is a private clinical setup established since 2019. The clinic is established with the aim of treating patients who had their lifestyle impaired due to any Neurological, orthopaedic, cardiovascular or work-related condition.  

 

The aim of the clinic is to allow all patients to achieve their freedom of independent living. Luke’s physiotherapy clinic is a part of a multi-disciplinary team with the goal to return patients to independent functional living. We are a team of physiotherapists who work within the patient’s needs and when required do also refer patients to the appropriate multidisciplinary specialist.

 

Every patient is unique and every condition affects the patient in a different way. Education of the patient with functional rehabilitation enables the patient to return to their previous lifestyle with confidence. Each session is supervised by the physiotherapist and any changes required is attended to personally. This is done with the goal of empowering the patient so that the person feels confident in their home environment. Exercise training and behaviour change promote optimal recovery and aim to prevent secondary reoccurrence.

 

Located near the central part of Belgavi City, the Clinical premises is easily accessible with ample parking space near the entrance. The location of the setup is patient-friendly with easy wheelchair accessibility. We believe that each individual responds differently to their physical impairment and educating the patient about their condition on an individual bases, without generalizing the condition is another important factor that helps the patient in their road to recovery.

 

What differentiates Luke’s Applying Physiotherapy Clinic is that we use the most recent evidence to plan and execute each treatment along with the advanced Physiotherapy techniques. Constant Assessment is done for each patient and new goals are set when patients achieve the previous goals. With professional guidance and knowledge, you would be able to reach your previous strength and capacity, in the shortest duration possible.

Our Vision
