Sports physiotherapy · Delhi
Dr. Bhawana Aggarwal (PT) holds a Master of Physiotherapy in Sports (MPT) and has spent more than two decades treating athletes, gym-goers and weekend players. At our sports injury clinic in Pitampura we treat everything from a fresh ankle sprain to full ACL injury rehabilitation, with one goal: getting you back to your sport stronger and less likely to get hurt again.
Whether you play cricket, football or badminton, run, or train at the gym, rehab is built around the movements your sport demands, not just pain relief. We test strength, balance and control before clearing you to return to sport.
Whether you have had an ACL reconstruction or are managing a tear without surgery, we take you through every phase: settling swelling, getting the knee fully straight, rebuilding quadriceps and hip strength, then running, jumping and change-of-direction drills before return to sport.
Meniscus tears and knee ligament sprains respond well to graded loading, knee control training and balance work. Together with your orthopaedic doctor, we help you decide whether conservative rehab or surgery suits your knee.
A badly managed sprain often leads to the ankle repeatedly giving way. We control swelling early, restore movement, then focus on balance and strength so the ankle is stable for running and sport.
Pain on the outer or inner elbow comes from overloaded forearm tendons, common in racquet players, gym-goers and people who type or lift a lot. Progressive tendon loading, manual therapy and grip advice settle it without repeated injections.
Pain around the kneecap usually reflects how load is managed through the hip, knee and foot. Strength work, running technique and training-load changes get you running comfortably again.
Hamstring, calf and groin strains are common in cricket, football and sprinting. A staged programme of strengthening and sprint drills reduces the high re-injury rate these strains are known for.
From rotator cuff tendinopathy and impingement to rehab after a dislocation, we restore shoulder mobility and build the cuff and shoulder-blade strength needed for bowling, throwing, swimming and lifting.
Lower back strain from deadlifts, shoulder pain from bench press, side strains and fast bowler’s back pain: we treat the injury and correct the technique or training load that caused it.
We look at the injury and at how you move: strength, flexibility, balance and the demands of your sport.
Manual therapy, taping and electrotherapy where helpful, plus protected movement so you do not lose fitness.
Progressive loading, plyometrics and agility work, drawing on Dr. Bhawana’s background as an aerobic and fitness trainer.
Objective strength, hop and agility tests before you go back to full training and matches.
After ACL reconstruction, most people return to jogging at around 3 to 4 months and to cutting and pivoting sports such as football, badminton or basketball at about 9 to 12 months, once they pass strength and hop tests. Returning before 9 months is linked with a higher risk of re-injury. Rehab without surgery follows a similar staged path, guided by how stable and strong the knee becomes.
A sports physiotherapist diagnoses and treats injuries to muscles, joints, ligaments and tendons, and builds rehabilitation around the demands of your sport. That includes hands-on treatment, strength and conditioning, taping, technique correction and return-to-sport testing, as well as advice on preventing future injuries. You do not need to be a professional athlete: we treat gym-goers, runners and weekend players too.
For the first day or two after a sprain or strain, relative rest, gentle movement within comfort, compression and elevation help, and ice can ease pain for short periods. Heat suits stiffness and muscle tightness later on. If you cannot put weight on the leg, see swelling within minutes or heard a pop, get the injury assessed early.
Usually you can keep training the uninjured parts of your body from the start. We give you a modified gym plan and add load back to the injured area step by step, based on pain and strength rather than just the number of weeks that have passed.
