Recovery you can measure, session by session.

Physiotherapy and rehabilitation built on one idea: every plan starts with a baseline you can see, and ends with a range of motion you can prove. No open-ended packages, no guesswork.

Our treatments

What we treat, and how

Every service starts with the same 60-minute assessment. What changes is the plan that comes out of it.

Sports injury rehabilitation

Return-to-sport programmes for ligament, tendon and muscle injuries, with objective discharge criteria rather than a fixed session count.

ACL · Hamstring8–14 sessions

Manual therapy

Hands-on joint mobilisation and soft-tissue work, used to unlock range so that active loading can actually be tolerated.

Mobilisation30–45 min

Spinal & postural care

For desk-driven neck and lower-back pain. Assessment covers workstation and load habits, not just the painful segment.

Lower back · Sciatica6–10 sessions
Why Recova

Four things we do differently

One therapist, one room

Your therapist treats you for the full session. We don't move you onto a machine so a second patient can start.

Numbers, not impressions

Range of motion, strength and pain scores are recorded at every visit. You see the same chart your therapist does.

A reassessment at session six

If you're not measurably better by session six, we change the plan or refer you on. We tell you this before you start.

Direct insurance billing

We bill Daman, AXA, Sukoon and Cigna directly. You'll know your co-pay before the first appointment, not after.

Your treatment journey

Five stages — and you'll know where you are in all of them

01

A full hour. History, movement screen, and baseline measurements for range, strength and pain.

60 minutes
02

Diagnosis & plan

You leave the first visit with a written diagnosis, a session estimate, and a cost.

Same visit
03

Active treatment

Hands-on work plus a home programme. Measurements repeated at every visit.

Weeks 1–4
04

Reassessment

At session six we compare against baseline and either continue, change or refer.

Session 6
05

Discharge

You go home with a maintenance programme and a six-week check-in already booked.

What people say after discharge

★★★★★

Excellent physiotherapist, Dr. Kareem is professional, patient, and very knowledgeable. He explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable from the beginning. I went in with persistent pain in my lower back and neck and saw real improvement after only 1 session. The clinic atmosphere was calm and welcoming. I would recommend to family and friends.

Can't find the words to describe how much I appreciate your help with the tingling and pain in my leg, also pain in my lower back disappeared. The sessions helped reduce the discomfort and improved my mobility noticeably. I wasn't getting any improvements from other physiotherapy sessions in Dubai — I believe I got a very holistic approach from you, Dr. Kareem. Your combos with dry needling and shock waves made astonishing progress. Thank you for your work!!

I visited Recova Clinic for a lower back issue and the experience truly exceeded my expectations. Dr Kareem was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to properly understand my condition before recommending the right treatment plan. The results spoke for themselves — my back has improved significantly, and I finally feel like myself again. Genuinely one of the best healthcare experiences I've had.

I went with a severe pain on shoulder, saw Recova physio Dr Kareem on Facebook, booked an appointment and Dr Kareem listened to my suffering. He started his treatment on spot, I felt great because my hand felt movement and had a relief from my Frozen Shoulder after 1.5 month of pain. Then I booked continuous sessions — the charges are very nominal, Dr Kareem is very focused on his treatment and I am able to sleep well.

Dr Kareem is by far the best physio in Dubai! I made a full recovery on my shoulder and neck pain, in addition he has fixed both my knees and I am able to practice my favorite hobby BJJ pain free! He is highly recommended!!! Thank you Dr. Kareem.

I can't find words to appreciate how much I am grateful to find you… I sincerely appreciate your professional support with my frozen shoulder. The pain, stiffness, and limited movement were soooo much disturbing — your treatments helped to restore comfort and mobility. Thank you again.

Thanks, dearest Dr. Kareem. I have knee arthritis and was struggling with constant knee pain, especially while walking or climbing stairs. The physiotherapy sessions helped strengthen the muscles around my knees and reduce inflammation and discomfort. I can move much more comfortably now and my knees feel more stable.

I am lucky to meet Dr. Kareem, because my previous physio sessions in other clinics were not going well — I did not see any improvement at all. I developed frozen shoulder with severe pain, stiffness, and very limited range of motion; I could barely lift my arm or sleep comfortably at night. The rehabilitation sessions with Dr. Kareem were challenging at first but incredibly effective. My shoulder mobility improved step by step, pain decreased, and I can now move my arm much more freely.

Dr Kareem honestly has magic hands. I've done hijama before in other places, but his technique is on another level — very precise, gentle, and effective at the same time. I felt immediate relief and so much lighter after the session. I highly recommend.

Why bed rest makes most back pain worse

Movement within tolerable limits restores function faster than immobility for the majority of non-specific lower-back presentations.

Post-surgical

What return-to-sport should actually mean

Time since surgery is the weakest discharge criterion. Hop symmetry and strength ratios tell you far more about reinjury risk.

Three exercises beat fifteen, every time

Adherence collapses above four exercises. We'd rather you do three properly than abandon a longer programme in week two.
