‘The Scope Of Physiotherapy Is Wide’: Dr. Ayush Laxkar On Rehabilitation, Technology And Patient Care
Dr. Ayush Laxkar, founder of AyuMotion Physiotherapy Clinic, discusses the integration of AI and robotics into modern rehabilitation practices. He highlights the growing need for physiotherapy due to sedentary lifestyles and musculoskeletal issues.
Why it matters
As healthcare shifts toward technology-driven solutions, understanding the role of AI in physical therapy is critical for patient outcomes and the future of medical practice.
Physiotherapy has evolved significantly over the years, moving from a largely equipment-light practice to a technology-driven field that increasingly uses artificial intelligence, robotics and advanced rehabilitation tools. At the same time, changing lifestyles, prolonged sitting, sedentary work and growing incidences of lifestyle-related musculoskeletal problems have made physiotherapy relevant for people across age groups.
As the founder of AyuMotion Physiotherapy Clinic and a neuro physiotherapist, Dr. Ayush Laxkar has worked with patients dealing with neurological conditions, movement disorders, paralysis, balance problems and spinal cord injuries. In an interaction, the founder spoke about the journey into physiotherapy, the role of technology and AI in rehabilitation, the importance of preventive exercises, sports injuries, pregnancy-related physiotherapy and the need to expand awareness in smaller cities.
