Ankylosing Spondylitis & Spondylitis — What You Need to Know
Spondylitis — particularly ankylosing spondylitis — causes chronic inflammation and stiffness in the spine, affecting young adults most severely. Physiotherapy is the cornerstone of spondylitis management, improving posture, mobility, and quality of life significantly.

How Online Physiotherapy Treats Spondylitis in Mumbai
The same clinical expertise — delivered to your home in Mumbai via secure video call.
Daily Mobility Exercise Program
A structured daily exercise routine maintains spinal mobility and prevents progressive stiffening — the most important long-term intervention in AS management.
Breathing & Chest Expansion Exercises
AS can restrict rib cage mobility and reduce chest expansion. Specific breathing exercises maintain lung capacity and thoracic mobility.
Posture Training & Correction
Progressive spinal kyphosis (hunchback) is the most visible consequence of poorly managed AS. Postural training from early in the disease course dramatically reduces this risk.
Hydrotherapy Guidance
Pool-based exercises are particularly beneficial in AS. Dr. Ponkhi provides a structured aquatic exercise program appropriate for any stage of the condition.

Sample Exercises for Spondylitis
A preview of the exercises prescribed by Dr. Ponkhi. Your full plan is personalised after the assessment.
Exercise 1: Prone Press-Up (Extension)
10 reps × 3 setsLie face down and press up onto your elbows or hands, extending the lumbar spine. Counteracts the flexion posture of AS and maintains extension mobility.
Exercise 2: Rib Cage Expansion Breathing
5 deep breaths × 5 setsPlace hands on the sides of your rib cage and take a deep breath while trying to expand the ribs laterally. Maintains rib cage mobility critical for lung function in AS.
Exercise 3: Hip Flexor Stretch
45 sec × 3 per sideKneeling lunge position, gently sink forward to stretch the front of the hip. Hip flexor tightness is extremely common in AS and drives the characteristic forward-bent posture.

Frequently Asked Questions — Spondylitis Online Physiotherapy in Mumbai
Is online physiotherapy for spondylitis effective for patients in Mumbai?
Yes. Clinical research confirms that tele-physiotherapy achieves equivalent or superior outcomes to in-person care for spondylitis. Patients in Mumbai receive the same expert clinical diagnosis and personalised treatment protocols from Dr. Ponkhi Sharma PT via secure HD video call. No travel, no waiting room — just expert care from your home in Mumbai.
Can physiotherapy slow the progression of ankylosing spondylitis?
Yes. Daily physiotherapy exercise has strong evidence for reducing pain, maintaining mobility, and slowing the progressive spinal stiffening of AS. It is recommended by all major rheumatology guidelines as a core component of AS management alongside medication.
How often should I exercise with ankylosing spondylitis?
Daily exercise is the standard recommendation for AS. Even 20–30 minutes of mobility and strengthening exercises each day makes a significant difference to long-term outcomes. Dr. Ponkhi designs a realistic daily program that can be maintained long-term.
Can I swim with ankylosing spondylitis?
Swimming is one of the best exercises for AS — the buoyancy reduces spinal load while providing full-body mobility and cardiovascular benefit. Dr. Ponkhi can recommend specific swimming strokes and pool-based exercises appropriate for your stage of AS.
What sports are safe with spondylitis?
Low-impact activities — swimming, cycling, walking, yoga (modified) — are generally excellent. High-impact sports with collision risk (rugby, martial arts) should be avoided due to osteoporosis risk in long-standing AS. Dr. Ponkhi will advise on activity modification for your favourite sports.
Does physiotherapy help non-radiographic axial spondyloarthropathy (nr-axSpA)?
Yes. The physiotherapy approach for nr-axSpA is identical to AS — daily mobility exercises, postural training, breathing exercises, and core strengthening. Many patients with nr-axSpA report even greater exercise responsiveness than those with radiographic AS.
