Relief from neck, back and knee pain
Durdans
Hospital, Sri Lanka's first Joint Commission International (JCI)
approved hospital has introduced an advanced physiotherapy unit
conveniently located on the 1st floor of the Sixth Lane Wing at the
hospital premises. 'Durdans Advanced Physiotherapy Services' provides
relief to one of the most widely spread conditions seen among young and
old Sri Lankans alike - neck, back and knee pain.
Chronic neck, back and knee pain is widespread around the world due
to bad posture, incorrect usage of hand-held mobile devices, ergonomics
at workstations and at homes, unstructured exercise or the lack of it,
uncomfortable driving positions and even bad eating habits.
Neck, back and knee pains have been classified as a common problem,
with two-thirds of the world's population experiencing these pains at
some point in their lives.
