I had developed disc bulge on lumbar spine due to which I wasn't able to sit on. Chair. I could either stand or lie down . The doctor explained the reason to be ping sitting hours and the core back muscles losing their strength to hold the bones leading to higher pressure on discs. *** ******** *** *** **** **** ******** **** ** ******** ** ****** * I liked the fact that she did not tell me that I will get better in 10 days because in reality this kind of backpain requires long excercise regimen after physiotherapy. She explained me the procedure and listened to my pain points patiently. Initially we started with easy exercises ultrasonic massage and later as my pain reduced I moved to other hard excercise. She used to capture my pain each time we continued. Her team is through with documenting the progress. My treatment went for 4 months but I got better. I would like to recommend her to anyone looking for long term solutions for their physiotherapy needs.

I went through the unimaginable pain of a late miscarriage in my ninth month, and after delivery, I completely lost confidence in myself and in my body. The emotional and physical suffering was overwhelming. Smarnika ma'am not only gave me the strength to believe in myself again but also helped ease my pain in ways I did not think were possible. I am deeply grateful to her for bringing hope and healing back into my life. Highly recommended!

She charges for consultation and physiotherapy separately ** ** *** ** * ******** ******. I have never met any physiotherapist with consultation fee separately charged. What consultation can a physiotherapist provide, they have to use their machine for circulation of blood, that should be included in consultation fee. **** ********* **** ********* ******* **** ******** ************ *** ******** ************* ****** * For Simple diagnosis and simple issue she took 1050rs. Very expensive for simple problem. These small places not many patients come ** ******* ***** **** *** ** ***** ***** ******* She asked 6750 for 15 days session for simple neck pain.

Visited For Rheumatoid Arthritis Physiotherapy

The first most appreciable matter here i felt is the diagnosing and explanation of doctor about our problems. She listens our complaint and suggest the treatment which suits for our age and flexibility. Also the best part is no too much waiting time to see the doctor, even in the busy schedule also they give enough time for us. When i came first i can't do my activities comfortablly but now i feel much improvement in my movement and pain also reduced a lot. I recommend the doctor those who are suffered with pain and not able to recognise the reason...
Visited For Neck Pain
Hoped for better: Value for moneyTreatment satisfaction
I went to her with a neck pain. I got little useful consultation or treatment as she spent most of the time talking theory and how huge my neck issue is, how her package of minimum fifteen days costing 7.5k is a must. She kept ignoring my request for taking stepwise approach to first do the needful for pain relief of neck and if that helps move to other areas such as whole back as necessary. But she kept on insisting on larger package. ** ****** ***** * ******** ** ****** *** *** *** ** **** ** ******** *** ** **** ** ***** ********* *** *** *********** **** ************ ********** She is also arrogant. At the end of the consultation I came out with nothing but package information.

I have been going here for 3 months and when I began I had no confidence in the process of physiotherapy and then slowly but surely it grew on me.
The doctor is exceptional in understanding and answering concerns, would suggest most people to take a leap and trust the process and within a month figure out whether this is it for you or not (litmus test).
Visited For Lower Back Physiotherapy
Happy with: Explanation of the health issueTreatment satisfaction
I had lower back pain for many months before I reached out to Dr. Smaranika. I also had a pointed pain due to a minor injury. The good thing about Dr Smaranika and her team is the way they explain the issue and the way they give the IFT, IR, Laser treatment based on how my body is responding to it. Also, the way they built up the exercises starting from just one exercise for 3 sets all the way upto more than 20-30 exercises over a period of a couple of months was impressive. Again this was based on how my body is responding to the exercises, and I was given the reasoning behind adding certain types of exercises.
The core lower back pain reduced significantly after about a month of treatment (2 sessions per week+ exercises at home) and the pointed pain reduced significantly after about 3 months of treatment. Although I see small remnants of the pain when I end up straining my back, I see it as a great relief from the intense pain I had when I first visited the doctor.
Thank you doctor.
