45–60 minutes With an Orthiva physician You leave with your Orthiva Score

Every chronic joint and spine condition has a different story. The Orthiva Assessment is a structured, physician-led evaluation designed to understand the underlying causes of your symptoms, explain your condition clearly, and determine whether a Personalised Joint & Spine Restoration Program is the right next step.

What you take home

The Orthiva Score

You leave your assessment with the Orthiva Score — a written, dated Day-0 baseline of your joint or spine, measured the same way modern medicine measures it.

It records validated indices — the WOMAC osteoarthritis index or ODI for the back, your pain on the VAS scale, your range of motion and your function. Numbers, not impressions.

If a program follows, the same measures are re-taken at Day 90 and Day 180 — so any change is measured against your own baseline, not assumed. Restoration, measured.

Illustrative sample — not a real patient, and figures are placeholders. Your actual Orthiva Score is personalised to your joint and measured at your assessment.

Fees & enrolment

The assessment fee is fully credited toward your program if you enrol — an Orthiva Coordinator will share the details on WhatsApp when you book. There is no obligation to start treatment on the day.

Our written commitment

The Dr. Era Ayurveda Assurance

Your Day-0 Orthiva Score report carries a printed improvement threshold — the number we hold ourselves to. If your Score has not meaningfully improved by your Day-90 re-measure, and you have kept your side of the plan — attendance and home protocol, visible to you throughout — we repeat your program's treatment stages at no cost. One repeat, in writing, from Day 0.

We don't promise a result. We promise what we'll do if the numbers don't move.

‘Meaningful improvement’ uses the published thresholds of the medical instruments themselves (WOMAC/ODI/NDI/VAS), printed on your own report — never our judgement after the fact.

An honest note

Who may not be suitable?

The Orthiva Assessment is built for chronic joint and spine conditions. It may not be the right starting point if you have:

  • Emergency conditions
  • Acute fractures
  • A condition that requires urgent surgery
  • Serious neurological symptoms

Where your situation needs urgent or specialist care, our doctors will tell you honestly and point you toward the right place. We would rather refer you correctly than take on a case that is not suited to this path.
