What the guidelines say
Our programmes are built on published clinical pathways (e.g., LSVT for Parkinson's, NICE for stroke, ACL Delaware / MOON protocols for knee, Otago for falls) and adapted for Indian home environments and cost realities.

What Vellore patients say about senior vitality program care
- Apr 2026
"Compared three clinics in Vellore before choosing this one. What convinced me was that the assessment for my senior vitality program was proper — orthopedic tests, movement screen, and a written plan. No generic ultrasound-and-go treatment like elsewhere."
Hari N.Katpadi, Vellore - Nov 2026
"My son's school in Thorapadi recommended this clinic for his senior vitality program. The paediatric therapist made every session fun for him. Parents get a home program too. In 8 weeks the difference is dramatic."
Priya R.Thorapadi, Vellore - Oct 2025
"Referred by a colleague in Arakkonam. The dry-needling and manual therapy for my senior vitality program gave same-day relief, and the strengthening plan made it last. First clinic where a physio actually watched me move before treating."
Karthik M.Arakkonam, Vellore - Jun 2026
"Was skeptical about physiotherapy for senior vitality program — thought only rest or surgery would help. After a 45-minute assessment I understood exactly what was wrong and what to do. Symptoms reduced by 70% in one month. Wish I had come earlier."
Kavitha K.Melvisharam, Vellore - Aug 2026
"Loved the transparency. Cost sheet given upfront for the entire senior vitality program program, no hidden add-ons. Sessions started and ended on time. Reception team even coordinated with my Ola driver for pickup."
