Philosophy
Health is a balance
The human body is an incredibly complex organism that must maintain a constant balance between various physiological systems. When dealing with injury and pain, the balance of our Nervous, Immune & Musculoskeletal systems is disrupted.
Physiotherapy treatments help patients recover by stimulating the nervous system, supporting the immune system, and optimizing movement patterns to prevent re-injury.

Health Advocate
Srikesh describes his role as a health advocate and problem-solver who combines active listening with his natural sense of curiosity to build rapport with his patients. Srikesh is keenly aware that physiotherapy problems are always multifactorial and unique to the individual. Thus, he has come to appreciate the art involved with patientcare and the importance off emotionally intelligent communication.
Values
Trust
Patients place a great deal of TRUST in their therapists. I will respect this and take great care to ensure patient safety and autonomy.
Curiosity
CURIOSITY leads to the best questions, and better questions lead to growth and prevents stagnation.
Humility
I believe there is no such thing as perfection in healthcare, but self-reflection and HUMILITY will ensure I am always adapting and evolving towards a better version of myself.
Individuality
Every patient has a unique history and personality, I will respect their INDIVIDUALITY and I will strive to provide non-judgemental care, free of biases.
Creativity
As we await advances in medical science, we must respect the positive role CREATIVITY can play in the art of medicine.
Adaptability
The only constant in life is change. Demonstrating ADAPTABILITY ensures we can adjust to new circumstances as we journey to our goals.
