The Story
Behind Bethesda Physio*

From One Clinic to a Movement

In 2009, Dr. Karolin Rockson, PT (BPT), Ex. CMC - Vellore opened a small neurological physiotherapy clinic in Vellore with a bold mission: to make world-class neuro rehabilitation accessible to every patient in India, regardless of their socioeconomic background.

What started as a single-room practice quickly grew into Tamil Nadu's most trusted neuro rehab center. Patients with stroke, spinal cord injuries, Parkinson's disease, and cerebral palsy traveled from across South India to receive care that was previously only available in metropolitan hospitals.

By 2013 we expanded to Katpadi, in 2018 we pioneered tele-rehabilitation to reach rural communities, and today our team of 50+ specialists operates across three centers — serving patients from over 20 countries.

Every protocol we use is evidence-based, every therapist is board-certified, and every patient is treated like family. That's the Bethesda Physio & Rehab Clinic promise.
