I cannot express enough gratitude for the transformative experience my 3.5-year-old child had at Labyrinth Physiotherapy and Neuro Rehabilitation Centre. From the moment we stepped into the facility, the atmosphere radiated warmth, compassion, and expertise.
Facility and Environment:
Labyrinth's state-of-the-art facility is designed with care, providing a nurturing environment that is both child-friendly and professional. The therapy rooms are equipped with the required equipment and technology, ensuring that each session is tailored to meet the specific needs of the child.
Expert Team:
The team at Labyrinth comprises skilled and compassionate professionals who truly understand the unique challenges that children facing neurological issues encounter. The therapists, led by experienced physiotherapists and neuro-rehabilitation specialists, are not only experts in their fields but also possess an innate ability to connect with the children on a personal level.
Tailored Treatment Plans:
What sets Labyrinth apart is their commitment to individualized care. Before commencing the therapy, my child underwent a comprehensive assessment that considered not only their physical challenges but also their emotional and cognitive needs. The therapists at Labyrinth crafted a personalized treatment plan that evolved (and ongoing) as my child progressed.
Progress Tracking:
They provide transparent and measurable outcomes for parents. Regular updates, detailed assessments, and collaborative discussions ensured that we were always well-informed about our child's development.
Holistic Approach:
One aspect that truly impressed us was Labyrinth's holistic approach to rehabilitation. The centre integrates various therapeutic modalities, including physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and to certain extent , behavioural lessons, to address the multifaceted nature of neurological challenges. This comprehensive approach significantly contributed to our child's overall improvement.
Results and Improvement:
Witnessing our child's journey at Labyrinth has been very satisfactory so far. When we started the process, they did not make any magical commitment for improvements within days or weeks, rather the explained that rehabilitation is a long process, and the ability to grasp the training and exhibit improvements varies from person to person. With a collaborative routine for both in and off the centre, in just a few months, we observed improvements in motor skills and coordination. The dedicated efforts of the therapists, coupled with the positive and encouraging atmosphere, instilled newfound confidence in our child. Labyrinth's innovative techniques and commitment to pushing boundaries have set the stage for our child's ongoing success.
Parent Involvement and Support:
Labyrinth recognises the crucial role that parents play in a child's rehabilitation journey. Regular meetings, updates, and guidance sessions equipped us with the feedback and knowledge to continue supporting our child's development at home.
In conclusion, Labyrinth Physiotherapy and Neuro Rehabilitation Centre stands as a beacon of hope for families facing neurological challenges with their children. The remarkable progress we've witnessed in our child is a testament to the centre’s unwavering dedication, expertise, and genuine passion for making a difference in the lives of these young individuals.
If you are seeking a rehabilitation centre that goes beyond traditional approaches and embraces innovation and compassion, Labyrinth is undoubtedly the place to turn to. Our family is forever grateful for the positive impact it has had on our child's life.

Though she appears but tough with straight talks, it is absolutely essential first step. Following the assessment of my daughter, she took controls at her hand and explained clear plan of how she (and her colleagues at Lyberinth) would help my child, what should be expectations on possible outcomes and what we as parent need to adapt. My daughter has been taking sessions almost daily for past one year and the results are very encouraging. I would certainly recommend her and her centre. Thank you very much ma'am.

This is genuinely one of the best places to have your child admitted for Physical therapy. A diverse experience among the 3 therapists here. We've been going here since almost a couple of years now for our boy with Downs. Not only do they help with Physiotherapy but also help you build your team of doctors in case needed with integral recommendations.
A cute little place but is just right to give your child that comfortable environment. We've seen results in terms of milestones! Thank you Team Labyrinth for everything.

I was concerned about my son as he was not reaching his motor milestones. He was already 8 months old but he was unable to sit by his own or crawl. Even we noticed that he was using his left hand very less. Due to this pandemic situation we are scared to visit any hospital, so I booked an online appointment of Dr Nishi to get an idea why this delay is there and what can be done. In my video consultation with Dr Nishi she took my whole history of pregnancy, delivery and postpartum. She saw the baby from all the angles with different postures and made diagnosis of his problem as well. He had lean and weak trunk muscles.
Initially she had given very simple exercises basically reaches so that he can sit independently. She explained us very well and asked us to share videos of his practice so that she can monitor as well. Everyday we share the videos and she reviews, corrects us whenever we are going wrong. We noticed change in our little one in just few days. He started sitting straight independently. Once she is confident that one milestone is achieved she started increasing complexity. We started doing all the exercises as a part of play with him and he even started enjoying it. We saw his improvement and our bonding with him was improving as well. We had our consultation with Dr Nishi weekly basis based on improvements shown by my son. She adds exercises and make us understand how to do it by making us do the exercise on baby or on ourselves in front of her. Even she does the exercises herself and shows us the correct way in case if we don’t understand. In a month now my son can sit by his own, can crawl by himself, even he is trying to stand up without teaching him. I am really grateful to Dr Nishi for helping us. Being patient and listening to our worries. Explaining everything so well and monitoring our progress. We never thought that this is possible online. But Dr Nishi made it possible. *** ** ****** **** ********* *** ******** Thank you so much mam for helping us during this pandemic.

We just started taking sessions from the center their open communication about the exact situation what my baby holding on is very good..so I'm getting an idea what I can do better to make his condition better...hoping I'll get the best therepy from them where I can see my son become independent in his activities
My son has been undergoing treatment for CP - Spastic diplegia for almost 4 years. We changed couple of centers due to various reasons and issues but definitely it was not easy to find a centre that was satisfying. Though we have seen the gradual progress in him, somewhere our confidence was shaking a little. My child's trunk was weaker and postures were not corrected - he was not even trained to basic reach out using the trunk muscles - all that would happen in the earlier therapy was mainly stretch stretch and only stretch. When the therapy sessions became quite irregular in the old centre we were forced to look for a new centre and thats when we came across Dr. Nishi and her centre Labyrinth. Her approach and sessions were quite different when compared to the previous ones and we were quite impressed with her in the first interaction itself - so decided to start our therapy from her. She works in multiple dimensions like dis-association, stability, posture, mobility and she concentrates on overall development of the child and gives importance to every minute stuff including making him independent. She also explains importance and need of particular exercise which made me all the more aware of muscle usages in different postures, this indirectly helps me handle my son better at home.
She is very approachable, friendly and so much loving with the kids that my son was comfortable with her in the first session itself. Another good part is way therapy room is arranged - loaded with different kinds of toys, kids are also pampered to the needed extent and strict whenever necessary to ensure children under go therapy playfully which definitely reduces the stress. Here I should give a part of the credit my son also who is a happy child by nature. We started going to her since March 2016 and my son underwent Botox treatment end of March and she planned the sessions very regularly to ensure he gets the right amount of therapy for quicker improvement and best use of botox treatment. It worked very well and I can confidently say the right therapy is the backbone of CP children and with in 3.5 months I have definitely noticed drastic improvement in my son. I realized my son did have more potential but due to lack of right therapy his progress was curtailed. We are pretty much satisfied with Nishi's thearapy and I would suggest all the parents to keep a watch on the quality and regularity of therapy as losing time is the most painful thing in these children. As she has expertise in sensory as well as fine motor skills - in parallel with gross motor skills, even fine motor and sensory issues are treated based on the needed - this helps me get everything I needed under one roof as its really tough to run around to different places specially in a crowded place like Bangalore.
Overall I am happy with the therapy and progress my son has had at Dr. Nishi's Centre. I would confidently recommend Dr. Nishi and her centre Labyrinth for any one looking for a quality therapy for their child. However, please do remember the overall development of the child depends on the child itself, qualify of the therapy, treatment from the doctors and also the precaution taken by parents at home - even if one of them has problem, the pace of improvement reduces. We need to be watchful constantly in all these dimensions to ensure our child is getting the needed support for better progress.

We went to Dr Nishi for my son's PT as advised by Dr Sampath. He was born premature with very low birth weight and was not walking independently at 2 yrs. and had foot ankle bending inwards severely. His balance improved within weeks of treatment and he was given muscle strength therapy for back and abs to start with. Soon after he was given leg muscle exercises which helped him start walking on his own within few months. Dr Nishi and her team were patient and diligently planned the treatment path including different types of exercise forms and ensured we were aware of even small changes during the course. They prescribed exercise routine at home and helped by reviewing videos consistently. They were extremely friendly and heard and answered all our queries. We would love to endorse Dr Nishi, Dr Sanchita and her entire team for utmost professionalism and strong expertise in pediatric physiotherapy!. Our twins sons loved meeting the entire staff and enjoyed the positive vibes thoroughly!

We have been taking my daughter to Dr Nishi Agarwal for 2.5 years. She has developmental delay and was walking on her toes and crouching. Initially Dr.Nishi took her assessment and told us what all corrections to be done for the child, like from dynamic AFO to AFO . She is in contact with the prosthetic people and informs them how she needs the AFO's to be made which is as per the child's need. She also told us the amount of effort which is required from our end along with the physiotherapy sessions.
Initially it took sometime for my daughter to get adjusted. She has never cried in the physiotherapy sessions here. Dr Nishi and her team take step by step approach. They perform activities required for the particular muscle and move on to next set of exercises once that has achieved. Along with that they provide home exercises also, which we need to follow promptly to see the result on our child. We were advised to put AFO whole night along with gaitors. Now we can see that her crouching has improved significantly and also her toe walking has reduced.
She concentrates at minute level and works towards it. Posture correction is also given equal importance. She is very knowledgeable in the subject and she explains what is right and wrong for the child. Periodic assessments are done and she discusses with child's parents on the progress and what she will be working for next few months. She along with Sanchitha and her team (Divya and Navya) are doing really great to help our child's progress. I really thank the whole team for their continuous effort.
