What We Treat

The Gold Standard ACL Rehab Programme in West Mumbai

An ACL injury is a 9–12 month journey, and the difference between a great outcome and a poor one almost always comes down to rehab quality — not the surgical technique.

Our ACL programme follows the latest international guidelines — criteria-based progressions, hop tests, strength benchmarking and sport-specific return-to-play testing before clearance.

We work with patients from before surgery (prehab) through full return-to-sport. Coordinated with Mumbai's leading orthopaedic surgeons.

Why Patients Choose Us

  • Specialist ACL programme
  • Pre-op AND post-op care
  • Criteria-based, not time-based
  • Hop testing & strength benchmarking
  • Surgeon coordination
  • Track record of successful return-to-sport

"Tore my ACL in a football match. Juhu Physio guided me through prehab, post-op rehab and return-to-sport over 10 months. I'm back to playing competitive 7-a-side, and stronger than before. Their methodical approach made all the difference."

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions Answered

Quick answers to questions our Juhu patients ask most often.

Do I need surgery for my ACL tear?
Not always. Some patients do well with rehab-only management. We work with your surgeon to decide.
When can I start running again?
Usually 12–14 weeks post-op, once you meet strength and movement criteria — not just by time.
When can I return to football or cricket?
Typically 9–12 months post-op, after passing return-to-sport testing.
How important is pre-op physio?
Very. Patients who do prehab consistently have faster, fuller recovery.
Do you use force plates / objective testing?
Yes — we use validated hop tests and strength testing to make progress decisions.
Will I be the same as before?
With proper rehab, most patients return to their pre-injury level — many become stronger.
