During that tenure I had more than 10 physiotherapists. Physiotherapists are not just a part of the recovery but they really are the recovery. My relationship with them has been based on trust. Athletes&#8217; lives are long and hard as we push ourselves to the limit every day. Citing the point in time where he had a tough relationship with his coach, he said that my physiotherapists were not only physiotherapists but mental therapists as well. They were the ones who helped mend the relationship with my coach by telling me the coach\u2019s perspective during my treatment. So, this relationship takes care of our overall wellbeing. It is the same relationship that goes to patients and helps them overcome fears.&nbsp; We are living in times where physical&nbsp;inactivity is at an all time high and so many people have postural challenges and therefore this department will help in not only treating but also in prevention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Parag Sancheti, Chairman Sancheti Hospitals said that Abhinav Bindra has inspired many youths through his career, tireless work and the Abhinav Bindra Foundation. The state-of-the-art physiotherapy centre inaugurated today at the hands of Abhinav Bindra &nbsp;will go a long way in helping not only &nbsp;patients but also sportsman to assess their abilities and get to their peak performances. This centre will start &nbsp;a new journey for patients and athletes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rajiv Bajaj, Managing Director, Bajaj Auto said that I look at this centre with three metrics viz individualisation, holistic experience and vitality. This is an outstanding centre.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pune (Voice news service):- Physiotherapists are not just a part of the recovery but they really are the recovery, India\u2019s first \u00a0Gold Medalist at Olympics Abhinav Bindra reflected on the crucial role of physiotherapists in the life of a sportsman.
