Clinic or home visit: which suits your recovery
When physiotherapy at home makes sense, when coming to the clinic is better, and how many people move from one to the other.
What physiotherapy costs at Chalan, and how to plan for it
Assessments, single sessions, packages and home visits: the real numbers for a typical course of treatment.
Before starting treatment, most people want to know how much it will cost overall, not just per visit. We give an estimate after the first assessment, but here is how the numbers usually work.
Everyone starts with a 60-minute assessment and first session at ₹800. After that, one-to-one sessions are ₹900 for sports injuries and most back and neck problems, ₹950 for ACL rehab and ₹1,000 for knee replacement rehab. Home visits in west Ahmedabad add ₹300 for travel.
Packages lower the cost for longer courses. Six sessions cost ₹5,100, which is ₹850 each, and ten cost ₹8,000, or ₹800 each. Packages are valid for three months, so they suit problems that need regular visits over several weeks. A typical course for a common back or neck problem is the assessment plus four to eight sessions, so between ₹4,400 and ₹8,000. Knee replacement rehab, with daily home visits in the early weeks, is longer and costs more; we write a separate estimate for it.
Some insurance policies cover physiotherapy after surgery. We give itemised bills and session notes for every claim. Exercises you do at home are free, and they are where most of the progress comes from, so a plan with fewer sessions and more home work is often both cheaper and better. If cost is a worry, tell us during the assessment. We would rather plan fewer, well-spaced sessions than have you stop halfway.
