Panchkula: In a significant initiative aimed at promoting health awareness and preventive care, IEC University organised a free physiotherapy camp at the Panchkula District Court Complex on Tuesday. Around 40 patients, including advocates, judicial officers and court staff, benefitted from the camp.
The camp was conducted by the Health Department of the university located at Atal Shiksha Kunj, Kalu Jhanda, and focused on spreading awareness about physical well-being and the importance of physiotherapy in daily life.
Hon’ble District and Sessions Judge Sanjay Sandhir attended the programme as the chief guest. Hon’ble CJM Vinod Kumar, Bar Association President Rakesh Sharma and Secretary Kulbir Saini were also present on the occasion.
Addressing the gathering, Judge Sanjay Sandhir highlighted the growing importance of physiotherapy in today’s fast-paced lifestyle. He said prolonged sitting hours and hectic work routines often lead to physical discomfort among lawyers and court employees, making such health camps highly beneficial.
“Physiotherapy plays a vital role in relieving physical pain and improving overall health. Awareness initiatives like these are extremely relevant for people working in demanding environments,” he said while appreciating IEC University for organising the camp.
During the session, the university’s physiotherapy experts guided participants on maintaining correct sitting posture and demonstrated simple exercises that can be performed at home to prevent body pain and improve flexibility.
The initiative received an encouraging response from members of the legal fraternity and court staff, who appreciated the university’s efforts towards community health awareness.
