Hi,
I am Valarmathi, Bachelor of Physiotherapist (BPT). I have graduated from Vivekananda Institute of Medical Sciences & Research College from India. Duration of the course is 4.5years (6 months of internship). I have done my internship in different hospitals in India and attended workshop in Examination and management of cervicogenic Headache and Motor relearning programs for stroke.

The important relationship between diet and physical performance, researches have evaluated several possible ways of increasing the body's glycogen reserves and also enhance the athletic function especially for 100 meter sprinter.
