About Le Yantra
A spine and sports injury clinic in Bengaluru, built around one idea, treat the cause, not just the pain.
Le Yantra has two locations in Bengaluru, Malleshwaram and MEI Layout. We treat neuromusculoskeletal problems, back and neck pain, sports injuries, joint and postural complaints, using physiotherapy, chiropractic and manual therapy, and advanced electrotherapy under one roof.
The clinic was founded by Dr. Palanivel Mayavan, a sports and musculoskeletal physiotherapist, and has been treating patients in the city for over nine years. Our reputation was built working with elite athletes across a range of sports. The people who walk through our doors are mostly not athletes, and they get exactly the same standard of attention.

Our approach
We treat the cause, not just the site of the pain
Pain is usually a symptom of something further upstream. A knee that hurts on the stairs may be a hip that is not doing its share. A back that keeps going out may be a working day the body was never built for.
So our assessment goes beyond the injury. We look at your background, medical history, lifestyle, age, posture and body alignment together, and work out what is actually driving the complaint. Treating that, rather than only the painful area, is what reduces the chance of the problem returning once treatment ends.
This thinking is formalised in our own clinical framework, the Integrated Bio-Tensegrity Release Method, an approach that treats the body as one connected system rather than a set of separate parts.
Registration and standards
Every physiotherapist at Le Yantra is qualified and registered to practise. Assessment and treatment follow current evidence, and our clinicians maintain their training rather than practising from what they learned at graduation.
Our assurance
Six things you can hold us to
Specific and checkable, rather than the kind of promise any clinic in the city could also make.
-
One-to-one throughout
You see a qualified physiotherapist at every appointment, not just the first. You are not handed to an assistant once the plan is set.
-
Assessment before treatment
The first visit is an examination. Nothing is treated until we can explain to you what we think is causing it.
-
A genuinely multidisciplinary team
Physiotherapy, chiropractic and sports medicine in the same clinic, so the right approach is chosen rather than the only one available.
-
Equipment where it earns its place
Shockwave, Class 4 laser and cryotherapy on site, used to support hands-on treatment and rehabilitation, never as a substitute for it.
-
A plan you can actually follow
Three or four exercises that fit your day, not a printed sheet of twenty. Exercises nobody does are exercises that do not work.
-
Honest timelines
You get an estimate of how long it should take after your assessment, and we tell you if physiotherapy is not the right answer for your problem.
Founder
Dr. Palanivel Mayavan
Founder · Sports and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist
Dr. Palanivel Mayavan has practised for 24 years, nine at Jindal Hospital in Bangalore, six across multispeciality clinics in Chennai, and nine since founding Le Yantra. He treats sports injuries and neuromusculoskeletal problems of the back, neck, shoulder, knee and foot, and developed the clinical framework the practice is built on. He leads the multidisciplinary team and continues to see patients at both clinics.
Clinical team
One team across both locations
Our clinicians work as one team across both locations. Each brings a different specialisation, which is what lets us match the approach to the problem rather than the other way round.

Our foundation of care
Guided by purpose, committed to your wellness
Mission
To provide an environment that promotes effective physical rehabilitation of injured individuals using manual therapy, physical and electrical treatments, exercises and education, customised to the client's needs. We aim to return our clients to physical activity safely, quickly and efficiently, supported by a multidisciplinary team dedicated to helping them reach that goal.
Vision
To be a leader in sports, exercise and musculoskeletal care through innovation across three pillars, clinical care, research and education.
Values
Le Yantra is a value-driven organisation founded on respect, integrity and, above all, trust. These values run through every service we provide, and they are a large part of why our clients stay with us for years.
Mandate
To provide innovative, inter-disciplinary, client-centred clinical care for sports and musculoskeletal disorders, including sports medicine and exercise, orthopaedic care, sports therapy and musculoskeletal rehabilitation.
Facilities and equipment
Our clinics
Both locations are equipped for hands-on treatment, rehabilitation and advanced electrotherapy in the same visit, so you are not sent elsewhere partway through a course of care.
Treatment rooms are private, and the rehabilitation space lets exercise be taught and supervised rather than handed over on a printout.
