I am going under the knife in Europe for some lower back operation.  When I come back the doctor recommends to have a  physiotherapy person a couple times a week

to work on stretching, exercising etc (he will give me a list of instructions)  I am a bit weary on  physiotherapy  specialists in Chiang Mai as I have gone to a couple in the past and it was like having my friend do it for the first time:) 

 

I was wondering if anyone could recommend any quality  physiotherapy  people, ones that have a strong grasp of the English Language would be good.  I know some Thai but I certainly do not know medical Thai lingo.

 

Thanks for your suggestions

Khun Took at that hospital by the Holiday Inn.  You might need a Thai doctor's referral to get an appt, though.

 

EDIT:  Here's her contact info from the pinned topic above.

Khun Took (and others)

 

Rajavej Hospital,

Don't go for any back surgery without going for other non-invasive options first.

 

There is a famous Chinese physician just a short trip in Malaysia and he can speak English. He has cured many famous people across the globe, watch video below.

thanks for the thoughts, I have done many things over the years, but I have three discs that are almost completely gone, pretty confident this method will not regrow my discs, I am almost bone on bone in two areas  , been researching my options for almost 2 years and it is time to do it.

 

May I recommend Khun Noy

Noy now has a clinic on Chang Moi, the road from Moat to Warorot Market.
I know Noy from the swimming pool and all who have used her Physio services swear by her.

thanks will check her out as well

The CMU Outreach centre, Ruamchok plaza,  is very good for physio, circa 500 baht per session.

 

Also, as someone who went the alternate treatment route (chiropractor) aged 35 I can confirm that you will pay the price at some point, providing you live long enough, in my case aged 68 I'm starting to pay and will be in a wheelchair within five years at max.

great thanks!

Khun Took at Rajavej is excellent! Highly recommended.

 

Yes, now they require a letter of referral from a physician.

Can it be a letter from an outside surgeon as from another country or will I have to see someone local to get it?

Unsure, worst case is you may need a short consultation with an ortho. doctor here in order to get the referral, that shouldn't be more than around 400 baht or so.
