Sharing his Journey,Sathish Kumar Sivalingam, Indian Weightlifter, 2014 and 2018 Commonwealth Games Gold Medalist said, “After my injury at the Asian Games, the hospital in Jakarta advised two months of complete rest. They were of the opinion that I could probably start training after three to four months. Upon arriving back to India, my Ayurveda treatment started at Haoma Wellness under Dr. Shaji Kannoth and I simultaneously was working on my return to sport rehabilitation with Invictus Performance Lab. Within four days of combined treatment and multiple experts working with me, the pain reduced significantly and I was able to move around freely within 10 days. With another 10 days of treatment left, I aim to come back stronger and start training keeping the 2020 Olympics as my goal.”
