On 15th September 2025, ANSSI Wellness’s Kolhapur clinic witnessed a proud and historic moment as Mr. Prakashrao Abitkar, Minister for Public Health and Family Welfare of Maharashtra, visited the centre. The minister’s visit highlighted the growing recognition of Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Treatment as a safe, effective, and medicine-free solution for chronic spine problems.
The event was warmly hosted by Kolhapur Clinic Manager Mr. Indrajit Shirgaonkar, who arranged the proceedings and welcomed the minister. During his visit, Mr. Abitkar engaged in detailed discussions with Mr. Dinesh Dalvi, Founder & Managing Director of ANSSI Wellness, and Mr. Sumedh Sthul, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, about the clinic’s operations, patient success stories, and future goals.
Learning About Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression
At the core of ANSSI Wellness’s treatment approach is Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Treatment, a U.S. FDA-cleared protocol that has been life-changing for thousands of patients worldwide. This treatment gently stretches the spine using specialised equipment, creating negative pressure within the spinal discs.
This process achieves two key outcomes:
- Reduces Disc Pressure: By gently pulling apart the vertebrae, decompression allows herniated or bulging disc material to retract naturally.
- Promotes Healing: The negative pressure increases the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the affected area, accelerating tissue repair and reducing inflammation.
Unlike surgery, which carries risks of complications and long recovery times, this treatment is completely non-invasive. It requires no medicines, injections, or hospitalisation, making it a safe alternative for people suffering from chronic pain.
The minister was deeply impressed to learn that Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression provides 80-90% long-term pain relief for a wide range of spine-related issues, including:
- Slipped Disc (Herniated Disc)
- Sciatica
- Chronic Lower Back and Neck Pain
- Degenerative Disc Disease
- Facet Joint Syndrome and Spinal Arthritis
ANSSI Wellness has already treated over 6000 patients across India, providing them with lasting pain relief without resorting to surgery.
The Minister’s Appreciation
During his interaction, Mr. Abitkar expressed his satisfaction with the effectiveness of this innovative treatment. He acknowledged how ANSSI Wellness’s Kolhapur clinic has helped many patients regain mobility and lead pain-free lives.
The minister also explored the idea of integrating Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Treatment into government-funded healthcare schemes, so that even rural and economically weaker sections of society could access this breakthrough treatment. This vision aligns with ANSSI’s mission of making advanced spine care accessible, affordable, and surgery-free.
A Proud Milestone for ANSSI Wellness
The visit was more than a formal event; it was a moment of recognition and encouragement. The Health Minister appreciated the 40-minute meaningful interaction with the ANSSI team, where he carefully listened to their ideas and suggestions.
He also had the opportunity to witness firsthand the recovery of one of his close friends, who successfully returned to a normal, pain-free life after undergoing treatment at ANSSI Wellness. This personal connection reinforced his faith in the treatment’s effectiveness and the clinic’s dedication to patient care.
One of the major points of discussion was ANSSI Wellness’s commitment to expanding its reach into rural parts of Maharashtra, where access to advanced spine care remains limited. With the minister’s support, ANSSI Wellness hopes to make Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Treatment a trusted healthcare option not just for urban patients but also for those living in villages and small towns.
Voices of Praise and Recognition
Other honorable guests at the event also expressed their appreciation for ANSSI Wellness’s pioneering work in spine care. The recognition from the Health Minister has added immense visibility to ANSSI’s mission and strengthened the team’s determination to bring this advanced therapy to more patients across the country.
The minister’s acknowledgment reaffirmed ANSSI Wellness’s role as a leader in non-surgical spine treatment in India.
Looking Ahead
The visit of Mr. Prakashrao Abitkar to ANSSI Wellness’s Kolhapur clinic will be remembered as a landmark moment in the journey of the organisation. His faith in the treatment, encouragement for government-level integration, and appreciation of the team’s dedication have provided ANSSI with a renewed sense of purpose.
As ANSSI Wellness continues its mission to provide safe, effective, and surgery-free relief for spine problems, the recognition by Maharashtra’s Health Minister marks a turning point, bringing the possibility of transforming spine care for millions across the state and beyond.
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression is not just a treatment; it’s a revolution in spine care. With the support of leaders like Mr. Abitkar, ANSSI Wellness is ready to expand its vision of making spine pain relief accessible to every household.
