DakshinRehab is a leading physiotherapy and rehabilitation center in Hyderabad offering neuro-rehab, musculoskeletal care, sports injury rehab, post-surgical recovery, and inpatient rehabilitation.
How do we combine technology with clinical expertise? We combine clinical decision-making with technology: plantar pressure mapping for ulcer risk and offloading efficacy, 3D gait/video analysis for alignment and step mechanics, InBody-270 body composition analysis for targets pre/post amputation, and EMG biofeedback for selective muscle activation during training when indicated. What is plantar pressure mapping? Plantar pressure mapping identifies high-pressure areas on the foot that increase ulcer risk, guiding custom insole and footwear design. What is 3D gait analysis for prosthetics? 3D gait analysis evaluates walking patterns, step symmetry, and energy efficiency to optimize prosthetic alignment and socket fit. What are the outcomes? The result is safer offloading for diabetics, more stable Charcot management with CROW walker, and faster functional gains for amputees with fewer gait deviations and lower fall risk. Living with diabetes means protecting your feet every day. Diabetic foot ulcers can lead to serious complications, including amputation. At DakshinRehab Moosapet, Hyderabad, our comprehensive diabetic foot care program combines plantar pressure mapping, custom offloading footwear, and preventive screening to identify risk zones before ulcers develop. We use advanced RPMS therapy for neuropathy pain relief and create personalized care plans that keep you mobile and active. Don't wait for complications—schedule your diabetic foot assessment today. For patients requiring intensive post-amputation rehabilitation, our post-amputation rehabilitation program provides comprehensive inpatient care including socket fitting, gait training, and functional recovery support.
Care pathway: Risk screening → Device prescription (offloading/orthosis/prosthesis) → Fabrication & fitment → Alignment & gait training → Strength & balance → Outcomes tracking (AMP, LCI-5) → Long-term prevention.
Medical history, foot and limb examination, vascular/neuropathy screens, residual limb assessment post-amputation. Pressure mapping and gait analysis to identify ulcer risk, deformity, limb length, step mechanics and compensations.
Orthotics: total-contact insoles, custom diabetic footwear, AFO/KAFO, spinal braces, CROW walker for Charcot. Prosthetics: socket (PTB/TSB, liner systems, suction/pin-lock), components (pylons, single-/multi-axial or carbon energy-storing feet).
Casting/scanning, trial fit, trim lines and pressure reliefs, static/dynamic alignment. Validate offloading (for ulcers/Charcot) and tune prosthetic biomechanics for symmetry, comfort and energy efficiency.
Amputee gait training (parallel bars → aids → community), balance, limb loading, core and hip strengthening, step strategy and fall prevention. Neuromuscular re-education and EMG biofeedback when indicated.
Review skin integrity and device wear, re-check pressure points, alignment and gait. Track AMP/AMPPRO, LCI-5, TUG, 6MWT, and patient-reported outcomes. Update device and program as goals progress.
Diabetic/vascular screening, neuropathy tests, pressure mapping and gait analysis. Residual limb exam post-amputation, volume, skin, bony prominences. Casting or digital scanning for orthoses/prostheses; select materials and liners.
Orthotics: total-contact insole, custom footwear, AFO/KAFO, CROW walker for Charcot. Prosthetics: diagnostic socket, component selection (foot/ankle), suspension (suction, pin). Trial fit to evaluate comfort, skin protection and offloading.
Trim lines and reliefs, static/dynamic alignment with video feedback. Education on don/doff, skin checks, sock management, wear schedule, offloading adherence. Immediate adjustments to optimize comfort and safety.
Amputee gait progression, stairs/ramps, uneven surfaces, aid weaning, hip/core strengthening, balance strategies. Orthotics pathway: offloading verification and progressive return-to-walk. Outcome measures: AMP/AMPPRO, LCI-5, TUG, 6MWT with re-test every 4–6 weeks.
Diabetic feet need pressure relief at risk zones to prevent ulceration and progression to Charcot or amputation. Amputees need a socket that protects tissues, components that match activity level, and training that restores symmetry. Technology—pressure mapping, gait video analysis, InBody, EMG—lets us quantify offloading efficacy, tune prosthetic alignment, and ensure training changes real-world function. Validated scales (AMP/AMPPRO, LCI-5) and functional tests (TUG, 6MWT) confirm progress, reduce complications, and accelerate safe return to community mobility.
Example:
Clinical example: A Charcot foot with midfoot collapse managed in a CROW walker shows >30% pressure reduction at plantar hot-spots and improved midfoot stability, halting ulcer recurrence. A transtibial amputee progressed from AMP 27→41 and LCI-5 38→54 over 12 weeks with alignment tuning, hip strengthening and cueing to eliminate vaulting and circumduction.
