Patient Information & Visit Guide
Essential details on preparing for your appointment, clinic procedures, and what to bring to Sai Upchar Kendra.
1. Preparing for Your First Consultation
To ensure your visit is comfortable, smooth, and productive, please keep the following tips in mind:
- Bring Previous Medical Records: If you have undergone MRI scans, X-rays, CT scans, or received prescriptions from orthopedic doctors, please bring physical copies or digital reports on your phone.
- Wear Comfortable Clothing: Wear loose, comfortable clothing (e.g. track pants, cotton trousers, or comfortable kurta) that allows easy assessment of back and limb movements.
- Confirm Your Time Slot: Call (+91 8999080794) or send a WhatsApp message before starting your journey to confirm doctor availability and avoid long waiting queues.
- Light Meals: Avoid having an unusually heavy meal immediately before spinal manual therapy. A light meal 1 to 2 hours prior is ideal.

Step 4: Self-Care & Follow-up Guidance
Practical instructions on sleeping positions, sitting posture, hydration, and safe stretching exercises to prevent recurrence.
3. Questions to Ask During Your Visit
We encourage open communication. Feel free to ask our practitioners:
- "Is manual therapy appropriate for my specific X-ray or MRI findings?"
- "How many sessions are typically required for my condition?"
- "What daily activities or lifting should I temporarily avoid?"
- "What home exercises can I perform to maintain my spine alignment?"
