Medical Disclaimer

Last updated: [Date to be added when published]

Please read this Medical Disclaimer carefully before using this website or booking an online consultation with Dr. Nikita Physiotherapy.

1. General Educational Purpose

All content on this website — including articles, FAQs, videos, and posts linked from our Instagram and YouTube channels — is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. It is intended to help you understand physiotherapy concepts, common conditions, and general movement/exercise principles. It is not personalised medical or physiotherapy advice for your specific situation.

2. Not a Substitute for Individual Assessment

Nothing on this website replaces an individual clinical assessment, diagnosis, or treatment plan from a qualified healthcare professional. Every person’s condition, history, and circumstances are different, and a proper assessment — typically through a consultation — is needed before any advice can be considered appropriate for you specifically. Information on this website should never be interpreted as a diagnosis of your condition.

3. Limitations of Online Consultation

Online physiotherapy consultation can be a convenient and appropriate way to access care for many musculoskeletal concerns, but it is not suitable for every condition. Some presentations require in-person physical examination, imaging, or urgent medical attention that cannot be provided through an online consultation. Dr. Nikita may recommend in-person evaluation, referral to another healthcare provider, or emergency care where appropriate, instead of or in addition to online physiotherapy.

4. Emergencies and Urgent Conditions

This website and our online consultation service are not designed or intended for medical emergencies. If you are experiencing a medical emergency or urgent condition — such as sudden severe pain, loss of function, chest pain, signs of stroke, a serious injury, or any other situation that feels urgent — please contact your local emergency medical services immediately (for example, dial 112 in India) or go to your nearest hospital emergency department. Do not wait for an online consultation or rely on educational content on this website in an emergency.

5. No Guaranteed or Instant Outcomes

Physiotherapy is an individualised process, and outcomes depend on many factors, including the nature and severity of your condition, how long it has been present, your overall health, and how consistently a recommended plan is followed. We do not promise, guarantee, or imply any specific, instant, or permanent outcome or cure from any exercise, technique, or treatment plan described on this website or provided during a consultation, and no single exercise or approach works identically for everyone.

6. Seek Appropriate Care

You are encouraged to seek in-person medical or physiotherapy care whenever appropriate, and to consult your doctor or another qualified healthcare professional about any specific questions you have regarding a medical condition or treatment. Do not disregard, delay, or discontinue professional medical advice because of something you read, watched, or were told through this website or its social channels.

7. No Diagnosis or Treatment Through Comments or Social Media

For your own privacy and safety, please do not share personal medical information, symptoms, reports, or images in public comments, direct messages, or social media posts. Public comments and DMs are not reviewed as a clinical channel and cannot be used to provide a diagnosis or an individualised treatment plan. If you would like guidance specific to your situation, please book a consultation through the link on this website or contact us at [email protected].
