Transcript of the video above.

Sankara Moorthy, I have come from Chennai. I have worked in a bank for 38 years and I retired 8 years before. So basically for last 8 years I am sitting, I am not going for any work. I am going for walking and other things, but I have age-related problems I have. Knee pain and I'm going for walking, I'm not able to go for a long walk. I had a little knee pain as well as and ankle I have a little. Itching, pain, not able to walk consistently. My wife, she had a little severe problem more than me. She was not able to walk. She had a very severe pain in the knee and all. Comparatively, compare to her, I have not. That much problem, but as age related I was having severe impediments. So then they came here. I went to their branch at Velachery for the medicines and other oil and other things. But they recommended you should go for a 10 or 15 days in stay hospitalization. Then I consulted, they in fact they came over the phone and. Discussed with me, then they recommended, then suggested you should come for a treatment here. Then on their recommendations, I came here. I stayed here for 10 days. See here, I stayed with my wife and both of us got the treatment. For because my problem was little less, so they gave me one time treatment per day, so nearly six therapy under Avnaro oil and powder and the. They gave. But after the treatment I have got a relief from the pain. But my now I what I feel is my body is like a child. Earlier I used to feel hard even though I have a pain I can able to walk and all. But after the treatment now I feel little so I hope. The treatment will be better. See, I want to say in 2012 I have a very severe shoulder pain. I went to the hospital in Chennai. I don't want to mention the name, but they suggested. Not only suggested, they have insisted that I should go for shoulder operation, but I postponed it for the last 10 years. Here I came and gotthis treatment. I expect that relief will be sustained. See the room service was good. I stayed both in the economy. I have a problem with AC so I didn't take the AC room I took only the I insisted for non AC non AC executive room was fair enough good enough only thing I. They can provide the shoes as well as the people here are with the impediment, little disability in walking and all, they can provide the pad. And other things at the room because there is every chance they may slip down. But otherwise the room service is good. The nurses they were maintaining their timings. So one thing I appreciate is they. Inform the time of the treatment time in advance so that we can be bit prepared. So there is no confusion and there is no changes in the timings. Maintain the timings very well as well as the people who gave the treatment they have very well experienced in that line they have given me the very nice treatment their conversation with the with me was. Very good. It was very encouraging. Even after my completion in the treatment, they gave me the advice. So don't do this, don't do that, or keep this. Their suggestions and improvement was very nice. The restaurant was very good but I have not much to because my food was served in the room itself. So my restaurant treatment was very less. But I used to go for evening coffee when some one or two guests came. So for that I gave the little beverages and other things. Otherwise restaurant was very good. Even the atmosphere I liked it very nice. Compared to Chennai and other big cities it was very far away from the. All the nuisance sounds and other things, very nice, very nice, good atmosphere. Only thing because of my pain I was not able to go for a walk and other things in the. ground, I could not enjoy that atmosphere, but otherwise it was very nice and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I was treated by Dr. Bijju Madhavan. Evenalso I came here last 5 years before, he gave me the medicine and other things, I got relief. But because of my... Severe condition I got admitted. Now I am feeling very well. His service was very nice. He has treated very well. His conversation and he gave a really encouragement talk. Unlike other doctors as I said earlier, they are not threatening. They said you have to learn to live with it. But. You will get the relief. You cannot get a cure, but you will get a relief. That way I really appreciate. He was very frank and fair in his opinion. So I appreciate his things. His treatment was very nice. He has told the things very plain.
