Rehabilitation for Tourists is our specialized physiotherapy service designed specifically for visitors to Rishikesh who experience pain, injury, or physical discomfort during their travels. We understand that dealing with an injury away from home presents unique challenges, and our service addresses these with an approach tailored to the needs and constraints of travelers.
Our tourist rehabilitation service differs from standard physiotherapy in its efficiency and travel-conscious approach. We provide rapid access to assessment and treatment, with flexible scheduling to accommodate your itinerary. Our therapists are experienced in addressing common travel-related issues—from yoga injuries and adventure activity strains to flare-ups of pre-existing conditions exacerbated by travel activities or long journeys.
We focus on immediate pain relief and functional improvement to help you continue enjoying your trip with minimal disruption. Treatment plans are condensed to fit your remaining time in Rishikesh, with emphasis on self-management strategies you can implement as you continue your travels.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our rehabilitation services for tourists
Do I need a doctor's referral to book a physiotherapy session as a tourist?
No, a doctor's referral is not required to book a physiotherapy session with us. As physiotherapists in India, we practice under direct access, meaning you can consult us directly for assessment and treatment. However, if you've received medical care for your condition already, bringing any relevant medical reports, imaging results, or prescriptions is helpful. If your travel or health insurance requires a doctor's referral for coverage purposes, we can assist by connecting you with local physicians. We strive to make the process as seamless as possible so you can focus on recovery and enjoying your time in Rishikesh.
How quickly can I get an appointment as a tourist?
We understand that time is precious during your travels, so we prioritize accommodating tourists with urgent needs. In most cases, we can schedule your initial assessment within 24-48 hours of your contact. For acute injuries or significant pain that's affecting your travel experience, we make every effort to see you on the same day whenever possible. We offer early morning and evening appointments to work around your sightseeing or retreat schedules. To ensure prompt service, we recommend contacting us via phone for the quickest response, especially for same-day requests.
What should I bring to my physiotherapy appointment?
Please bring any relevant medical documentation you have, such as recent diagnoses, imaging reports (X-rays, MRIs), or notes from your home physiotherapist if applicable. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the area requiring treatment and appropriate footwear if we'll be assessing your walking. If you're using any assistive devices (braces, supports, etc.), please bring those as well. It's helpful to have your travel insurance information and a form of identification. Additionally, bringing a list of current medications and any allergies is important for your safety. If English isn't your first language, a translation app on your phone can be useful, though we do offer multilingual services for many common languages.
Can you help with injuries from yoga or adventure activities?
Yes, we specialize in treating injuries related to yoga practice and adventure activities, which are common among visitors to Rishikesh. Our therapists have extensive experience with yoga-related issues such as wrist strains, shoulder impingements, lower back pain, and hamstring injuries that can occur during practice. We also regularly treat adventure activity injuries from trekking, rafting, and camping, including ankle sprains, knee pain, and muscle strains. We take time to understand your specific practice or activity, identify movement patterns that may have contributed to your injury, and provide targeted treatment alongside practical modifications that allow you to continue enjoying your activities safely during your stay.
Will my travel insurance cover physiotherapy sessions?
Many international travel insurance policies do cover physiotherapy treatment when medically necessary, especially for acute injuries that occur during your trip. Coverage varies significantly between insurance providers and specific policies. We provide detailed receipts and treatment documentation that meet international standards for insurance claims. We recommend checking your policy details before your appointment or contacting your insurance provider to confirm coverage. If required by your insurer, we can help coordinate with local physicians for referrals. While we don't process direct billing with international insurance companies, we keep our documentation comprehensive to facilitate your reimbursement process. Our reception team is experienced in preparing documentation for international insurance claims.
