Personalised treatment planning for neck pain, back pain, sports injuries, posture correction, and mobility recovery. Diagnosed at the cause — not just the symptom.
A physiotherapy consultation is a structured clinical assessment — not a treatment session. Your physiotherapist takes a detailed history, analyses movement patterns, assesses tissue quality, evaluates posture, and builds a picture of the specific mechanical and neurological factors driving your pain. The outcome is a personalised treatment plan with clear, realistic timelines.
We identify why you are in pain, not just where. Most back and neck pain has a specific mechanical driver that responds well to targeted physiotherapy once correctly identified.
Your treatment plan is built on what clinical research says works for your specific condition — then adapted to your body, lifestyle, and recovery goals.
In the majority of musculoskeletal conditions, early physiotherapy intervention prevents the degeneration that leads to surgical referral. Clinically, physiotherapy is the first-line recommendation.
You see the same physiotherapist at every session. Continuity of care is not a nicety — it directly improves clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction.

Sustained sitting in a suboptimal posture for 8–10 hours per day is now the leading cause of neck, upper back, and lower back pain in working adults in Bangalore.
Repetitive loading without adequate recovery, sudden increases in training volume, or biomechanical faults during sport all place excessive stress on muscles, tendons, and joints.
Gradual wear on cartilage, intervertebral discs, and tendons is a normal part of ageing — but the rate and severity are directly influenced by lifestyle, loading patterns, and early management.
Disc herniation or foraminal narrowing can compress nerve roots, causing radiating pain, tingling, and weakness in the arms or legs. Most respond well to physiotherapy without surgery.
Overactive or shortened muscles pull joints out of alignment, creating compensatory movement patterns that overload other structures. Identifying these patterns is central to our assessment.
Incorrect monitor height, chair setup, keyboard position, and carrying habits all contribute to cumulative musculoskeletal load — especially in IT professionals working in Bangalore's tech sector.
Six structured steps from your first consultation to a personalised recovery plan — all completed in a single 45-minute appointment.
A detailed conversation about the history of your condition — when it started, what makes it better or worse, what investigations you have had, and how it is affecting your daily life and work.
We map the exact location, character, and behaviour of your pain across activities and time of day. This gives us critical information about the structure involved and the mechanism driving it.
Active and passive movement testing identifies range of motion restrictions, directional preferences, and movement patterns that provoke or relieve your symptoms.
Static and dynamic postural analysis identifies the structural contributors to your condition — often revealing imbalances that have gone unnoticed for years but are driving your pain.
Targeted strength testing and, where indicated, neurological screening for nerve involvement — reflexes, sensation, and motor function — to confirm or rule out neural components.
A written treatment plan — shared with you at the end of the session — covering the diagnosis, the specific factors we will address, the techniques we will use, and a realistic recovery timeline.
Evidence-based outcomes across musculoskeletal, neurological, and sports conditions.
Address the structural cause of pain — not just the sensation — for durable, long-lasting relief.

Every clinic claims to be different. Here is what actually makes the difference in your recovery outcomes at Sevens.
Every session is a minimum of 45 minutes — no 15-minute appointment slots or rushed assessments.
You see the same physiotherapist every session. Continuity directly improves clinical outcomes.
Techniques are selected because the evidence supports them — not because patients request or expect them.
You leave your first session with a written plan covering diagnosis, approach, and realistic timeline.
Full equipment, turf space, and physiotherapist supervision — not a personal trainer on the gym floor.
Representative outcomes across our most common presenting conditions at Sevens.
Real recoveries from patients across HSR Layout and Bangalore — in their own words.
"ACL reconstruction in January, back playing football by August. Sevens gave me a structured programme and checked in after every session. Not just a generic printout. I genuinely could not have done it without them."
"Three years of lower back pain. Six sessions at Sevens — identifying a hip imbalance nobody had checked before — and I finally understood what was actually wrong. The pain is manageable now and I know why."
"Hamstring tear during a 10K. They did not just treat the tear — they looked at my running mechanics and fixed the underlying cause. Back to running in 10 weeks and not a recurrence since."
Dr. Suresh Pillai is the lead physiotherapist and clinical director at Sevens. With over 10 years of specialist experience in orthopaedic rehabilitation and sports injury management, he has treated patients ranging from desk workers with chronic back pain to competitive athletes recovering from complex surgical procedures.
His approach is straightforward: every patient receives a thorough assessment, an honest explanation, and a treatment plan that is genuinely built around their condition and goals — not a generic protocol.
