ACL Rehabilitation in Kharghar
An ACL injury — or the surgery that follows it — changes far more than one knee. Confidence in landing, cutting, running and even walking downstairs takes time to rebuild.
At Cura Advanced Physiotherapy, Kharghar, ACL rehabilitation is progressed step by step rather than by a fixed timetable. Each stage is cleared before the next begins, so strength, movement quality and confidence are rebuilt in the right order.
Rehabilitation is led by Dr. Dhammick Shinde PT, Branch Head at Kharghar, whose clinical interests include manual therapy, dry needling, clinical Pilates and orthopaedic rehabilitation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does ACL rehabilitation progress at Cura Kharghar?+
Rehabilitation moves through mobility, muscle activation, strength, balance, proprioception, functional training and sport-specific training before return to sport. Progression depends on the type of surgery, stage of healing, pain levels, strength and medical clearance — not on a fixed number of weeks.
Do you treat ACL injuries that have not been operated on?+
Yes. The Kharghar clinic provides rehabilitation for ACL injuries as well as after ACL reconstruction, along with meniscus injuries, ligament injuries, joint injuries and other sports-related muscle injuries.
What does return-to-sport rehabilitation involve?+
The later stages address strength deficits, balance and proprioception problems, and sport-specific movement, so that the knee is prepared for the demands of your activity rather than only for pain-free walking.
