4 simple steps
How your treatment works
Assessment
We examine the injury carefully, check an X-ray when needed, and decide the right care.
Gentle realignment
Experienced hands ease the bone or joint back into its natural position.
Herbal bark splint
Herbal paste is applied, bark strips are placed, and cotton cloth holds everything firmly.
Follow-up & recovery
We re-dress the splint on set days, track your progress, and guide you back to normal life.
Your recovery journey
From day one to fully healed
Day 1
Assessment, realignment and splint. For most people the pain starts easing the same day.
Week 1
Swelling settles. Splint re-dressing and a progress check.
Weeks 2 – 4
The bone begins to knit. Rest, good food and regular check-ups.
Weeks 4 – 6+
Splint removed, gentle exercises, back to everyday life.
Timelines vary with the injury, age and health. This is a general guide only.

Frequently asked questions
How much does treatment cost?
It depends on the type and extent of the injury. We tell you clearly after the examination. You can also call and ask.
How long does the splint stay on?
Usually 2–3 weeks for minor injuries and 4–6 weeks or more for major fractures, with re-dressing on set days in between.
Is the treatment painful?
There may be brief discomfort for a few seconds during setting. Because it is done gently, most people feel less pain once the splint is on.
Do I need an X-ray?
If you have one, please bring it — it helps a lot. If not, we will guide you to get one nearby when needed.
Do you treat children?
Yes. Children’s bones are delicate, so we treat them with extra care and patience.
Which injuries need a hospital right away?
If bone breaks through the skin, there is heavy bleeding, a head injury, fainting, breathing trouble, or a limb turns numb or blue — go to the nearest hospital immediately.
Do I need an appointment?
No, you can walk in. A quick call before you come helps reduce waiting.
