Symptoms

He had been suffering from Ankylosing Spondylitis since the past twenty years. In 2007, he became bed-ridden. He couldn't lift his hands at all. It took him ten minutes to turn to the other side while sleeping. He couldn't walk properly. His backbone had stooped and he was in constant ache. He had been hospitalised six times in 2008.

BEFORE the Treatment AFTER the Treatment
Pain in whole spine (neck to lower back) No pain in lower back
Could not move freely due to pain Can move freely
Was in constant pain & was on medication No pain & no medication
Could not lift his hands Can lift his hands freely
Even after such a long time, he (Dr Deepak Sachdeva) gives me unique and helpful exercises to do. So far I myself have recommended him and yoga therapy to all my friends. I feel enriched and all time best flexible. I thank him for getting my youth back! Samir Biyani
