Obesity & Weight Management
Extra weight puts constant strain on your knees, back, and heart — and crash diets rarely last. At Sparsh, Dr. Achal Vashi designs medically supervised exercise programmes that protect your joints while helping you lose weight safely and sustainably.
Understanding Obesity & Its Impact on Your Body
Excess body weight places continuous stress on weight-bearing joints — especially the knees, hips, and spine — accelerating wear and worsening pain. It also reduces stamina, increases breathlessness, and raises the risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. Unsupervised or overly aggressive exercise can injure joints that are already under strain, which is why a physiotherapist-led, medically guided approach is safer and more sustainable than a generic gym or crash-diet plan.
Signs You Would Benefit
Knee or back pain that seems linked to excess body weight
Breathlessness or fatigue during simple daily activities
Difficulty exercising due to joint pain or low stamina
Previous failed attempts at unsupervised gym or crash diets
Weight-related conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure
Reduced mobility or confidence in daily movement
Wanting a safe, structured plan rather than a generic diet fad
