For practising clinicians
For Physiotherapists & Rehabilitation Professionals
This library is written for practising physiotherapists and rehabilitation professionals. Every resource carries a named author, a named clinical reviewer who is not the author, and the date it was last reviewed.
Published now
26 clinical resources, 140 verified sources
Three of the eight sections below are open. Each resource names its author and reviewer, states an evidence grade with the reasoning for it, and reports what the evidence does not support.
Assessment and outcome measures
Sixteen instruments, each with the change you can defend in a single patient and the study that produced it.
Electrophysical agents
What each machine demonstrates, at what dose, and where the effect falls below the minimal clinically important difference.
Clinical reasoning and red flags
Screening for referral, red and yellow flags, and imaging appropriateness in both directions.

What this library covers
Eight kinds of clinical resource, three of them open
Organised by what you are trying to do, not by body region alone. Sections without a link are not yet written.
The differentiator
We publish what the evidence does not support
Most modality pages online list benefits. Ours state the limits too, because a resource that only tells you what works is not a clinical resource.
NICE guideline NG59, for example, recommends against the use of TENS, interferential therapy, therapeutic ultrasound and traction for low back pain. A modality library that says so is useful. One that quietly omits it is marketing.
Where the evidence is weak, uncertain or contested, we say so on the page rather than in a disclaimer at the bottom.
How to read a resource here
Every clinical page opens with its metadata before any content: who wrote it, which clinician reviewed it, the evidence grade, when it was last reviewed and when the next review falls due.
Where a page carries no reviewer line, review is outstanding. That absence is deliberate and visible — we would rather show the gap than imply it is not there.
Read the editorial and review policyF-MATS
Functional Movement Analysis and Treatment Strategy — a clinical framework developed by Dr Dharam Pandey for structuring movement assessment and linking findings to a treatment plan.
It is described here as a reasoning framework. We do not present outcome percentages for it: uncontrolled case-series figures without a comparator are not evidence of effectiveness, and we will not publish them as though they were.
Original work of Dr Dharam Pandey. No licensing arrangement or commercial interest exists in it.
Status of this library
This library is being rebuilt resource by resource. Each page goes live only once it has been written against primary sources and read by a named clinical reviewer, so the section list above describes scope rather than a current page count. We would rather publish slowly than publish a number we cannot stand behind.
Referring a patient
Physiotherapist India explains. It does not treat.
There is no booking or clinical service on this website. Physiotherapist India is an editorial project, not a provider; a patient who needs assessment or rehabilitation should be referred to a qualified physiotherapist.
