Experiencing back pain can be a disruptive, draining experience—and when you're in Delhi, choosing the right kind of care is crucial. CB Physiotherapy, with clinics across South Delhi (such as Safdarjung Enclave, Greater Kailash, Saket, and Vasant Kunj), stands as a trusted provider of physiotherapy and chiropractic services. Our model emphasizes an integrated, patient-centric approach, offering both clinic-based and home-visit care with transparent pricing and a strong focus on long-term outcomes.
Let’s explore how physiotherapy and chiropractic differ, their respective strengths, and how CB Physiotherapy brings them together to offer a compelling solution for back pain in Delhi.
What’s the Difference? Physiotherapy vs Chiropractic
1. Physiotherapy (Physical Therapy)
Physiotherapy takes a holistic approach focused on restoring function, mobility, and strength. Therapists provide hands-on manual therapy, prescribe targeted exercises, and guide posture and ergonomics to reduce pain and improve movement. Its broad scope extends beyond just the spine—covering sports injuries, post-surgery rehab, neurological disorders, and more
Chiropractors focus primarily on spinal alignment through manipulations and adjustments. Our philosophy rests on the idea that proper alignment of the spine supports the body’s natural healing abilities. This approach is especially effective for acute back or neck pain, offering potential fast symptom relief by targeting the spine and related joint misalignments
Similarities
Both are non-invasive, hands-on methods aimed at reducing pain and enhancing mobility.
Each often includes exercise guidance and patient education to prevent future issues
Key Differences
1. Techniques: Chiropractors emphasize joint manipulation; physiotherapists use a broader array of techniques—manual therapy, modalities like ultrasound or electrical stimulation, plus exercise and education.
2. Scope: Chiropractic mainly centers on spinal and joint alignment, whereas physiotherapy addresses full-body function across many conditions.
3. Philosophy: Chiropractic is about restoring spinal structure; physiotherapy targets functional movement, rehabilitation, and wellness.
4. Treatment Focus: Physical therapy often supports injury prevention and recovery planning, while chiropractic care may deliver quicker symptom relief in acute cases.

3. Wide Range of Expertise: Treating everything from spine and orthopedic issues to neurological conditions and post-surgical rehabilitation.
4. Patient-Centric Care: With transparent pricing, appointment flexibility, and continuous monitoring, we emphasize recovery and prevention rather than quick fixes.
Which is Better for You at CB Physiotherapy?
Here are key scenarios to consider:
1. When Physiotherapy Makes Sense
You need a long-term recovery plan or have a chronic condition—physiotherapy focuses on function and injury prevention.
You’re recovering from surgery or musculoskeletal injuries beyond the back (e.g., knee, shoulder).
You’d prefer active involvement via exercise, posture correction, and functional training.
You want a broader-treatment scope beyond spinal manipulation.
2. When Chiropractic Might Help
You're dealing with acute back or neck pain needing quick relief through manipulation.
You suspect spinal misalignment or joint restriction is the primary cause of pain.
You’re looking for a non-surgical, drug-free way to address sudden pain.
Why CB Physiotherapy’s Hybrid Model Stands Out?
At CB Physiotherapy, you can benefit from both worlds:
1. Start with chiropractic techniques to get initial pain relief.
2. Transition into physiotherapy for rehabilitation, strength-building, and preventing recurrence.
3. Leverage home visits if you need convenience or cannot travel.
4. Benefit from their expertise across various musculoskeletal and neurological conditions.
Real-World Benefits in Delhi

Offers immediate relief through chiropractic techniques.
Builds resilience with targeted physiotherapy strategies.

Both physiotherapy and chiropractic care offer effective, non-invasive options for back pain.
