Sitemap
Use this page to explore the main sections of The Physio Clinic website.
MAIN WEBSITE LINKS
Request an Assessment
Patient Stories and Resources should be linked once their final hub pages are live.
HOW WE HELP
How We Help is primarily a navigation mechanism / mega-menu, not a conventional content destination.
Therefore, the HTML Sitemap should expose the actual routes beneath it rather than inventing a long standalone How We Help page.
If a lightweight technical /how-we-help fallback URL is ultimately implemented, it may be linked discreetly, but it should not replace the route structure below.
WHERE DOES IT HURT?
Back, Neck & Spine Problems
Back, Neck & Spine Problems
Back & Lower-Back Pain
Neck & Cervical Pain
Sciatica & Radiating Pain
Slip Disc & Disc Bulge
Coccyx & Tailbone Pain
Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist & Hand Problems

Tennis Elbow & Elbow Pain
Wrist, Hand & Grip Problems
Hip, Knee & Leg Problems
Hip, Knee & Leg Problems
Knee Pain, Arthritis & Mobility Problems
Ligament & Meniscus Injuries
Hip & Groin Pain
That standalone page has been removed from the approved architecture.
Foot & Ankle Problems
Foot & Ankle Problems
Plantar Fasciitis & Heel Pain
Calcaneal Spur / Heel Spur
Ankle Sprain & Instability
Ankle-related content belongs here.
Do not duplicate ankle as a separate top-level route.
Jaw, TMJ & Headache-Related Problems
Jaw, TMJ & Headache-Related Problems
This gateway itself is the definitive Jaw/TMJ route.
WHAT ARE YOU DEALING WITH?
These routes cover situations where the visitor's main concern may not fit neatly into one body area.
Persistent, Recurring or Multiple Pain Problems
Arthritis, Joint Stiffness & Mobility Problems
Post-Fracture, Accident & Immobilisation Rehabilitation
Senior Mobility, Weakness & Fall Concerns
Sports Injury & Return-to-Activity Rehabilitation
Widespread Pain & Long-Term Condition Rehabilitation
Workplace, Posture & Return-to-Work Physiotherapy
NEUROLOGICAL, BALANCE & WALKING PROBLEMS
Neurological, Balance & Walking Problems

Neurological, Balance & Walking Problems
POST-SURGICAL REHABILITATION
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
ACL Reconstruction Rehabilitation
Shoulder Surgery Rehabilitation
Spine Surgery Rehabilitation
Wrist & Elbow Surgery Rehabilitation
Hip Replacement Rehabilitation
Foot & Ankle Surgery Rehabilitation
IMPORTANT ARCHITECTURE CONTROL
Do not list or create:
Bankart Repair Rehabilitation
Bankart repair is covered within:
Shoulder Surgery Rehabilitation
PREGNANCY & POSTNATAL PHYSIOTHERAPY
Pregnancy & Postnatal Physiotherapy
Prenatal Physiotherapy
Postnatal Physiotherapy & Musculoskeletal Recovery
Pregnancy and postnatal physiotherapy are separate from the neurological cluster.
Do not place them under neurological rehabilitation.
PATIENT STORIES
Once individual Patient Story pages are published, they may be listed beneath this heading.
Only list real, published stories.
Do not pre-populate the sitemap with placeholder stories or invented patient journeys.
Because we are returning to the Patient Stories hub later, the agency should leave this section expandable without creating empty links.
RESOURCES
As individual resources/articles are published, important canonical resource pages may be added here.
If Resources later becomes extensive, we can decide whether the HTML Sitemap should list:
Every resource, or
Only categories / key resources
For launch, keep it manageable.
VISITING THE CLINIC
The Areas We Serve page should remain one genuine local-relevance page.
Physiotherapy in Pitampura
Physiotherapy in Shalimar Bagh
Physiotherapy in Saraswati Vihar
Physiotherapy in Ashok Vihar
unless we deliberately approve real locality pages in the future.
At launch, those locations remain catchment information within the Areas We Serve page, not doorway pages.
CONTACT / ENQUIRY
Request an Assessment
Assessment Request Received
The post-submission page:
/assessment-request-received
is a private conversion-confirmation utility page and should remain:
Outside the XML sitemap
Outside the HTML Sitemap
Outside normal navigation
LEGAL & WEBSITE INFORMATION
Medical & Educational Disclaimer
Accessibility Statement
Patient Media & Consent Information
These should all also remain available through the footer.
PAGES THAT MUST NOT APPEAR IN THE HTML SITEMAP
404 / Page Not Found
Assessment Request Received / Thank You page
Form-processing endpoints
Internal search URLs
Parameterised duplicates
Redirect-only URLs
Canonical duplicates
Removed/superseded pages
Do not list unpublished pages simply because they appear in the architecture document.
PUBLISHED-PAGE RULE
The HTML Sitemap should represent:
What actually exists on the live website today
—not everything that might eventually exist.
Agency should compare every sitemap link against the production route list.
Whenever a page is:
Published → add where appropriate
Removed → remove from sitemap
Renamed/moved → update link and redirect old URL where appropriate
The sitemap should not become stale.
RECOMMENDED PUBLIC PAGE PRESENTATION
The page can be visually organised into approximately these groups:
HomeAboutPatient StoriesResourcesVisit UsAreas We ServeRequest an Assessment
Where Does It Hurt?
Five anatomical gateway groups with their child pages.

DESIGN / UI DIRECTION
No custom mockup is required.
Use a simple sitemap directory.
Short introduction
2–3 column link structure on desktop
Single-column sections on mobile
Clear H2 category headings
H3 subcategories where useful
Normal text links
Comfortable spacing
No cards required unless extremely restrained
No illustrations
No marketing banners
This page should load extremely quickly.
MOBILE UX
Use a simple vertical hierarchy.
Back, Neck & Spine Problems
↳ Back & Lower-Back Pain↳ Neck & Cervical Pain↳ Sciatica & Radiating Pain↳ Slip Disc & Disc Bulge↳ Coccyx & Tailbone Pain
Do not turn the sitemap into nested accordions unless necessary.
The main purpose is quick scanning and direct navigation.
ACCESSIBILITY
The sitemap should use proper semantic link structure.
Logical heading hierarchy
Descriptive link text
Keyboard-accessible links
Visible focus styles
Do not use “Click Here”
Do not rely on icons to explain destinations
Sitemap | The Physio Clinic
Meta Description
Explore the main pages, physiotherapy information, rehabilitation services and website resources available from The Physio Clinic.
The HTML Sitemap itself may be included in the XML sitemap as a normal canonical public page.
No special sitemap schema is necessary.
Global breadcrumb markup may be used if implemented sitewide.
HTML SITEMAP VS XML SITEMAP
These are two separate things.
Designed primarily for human navigation.
Machine-readable sitemap used primarily by search engines.
Example technical location:
The agency should implement both.
The XML sitemap should contain only:
XML SITEMAP AUTOMATION
Because the website uses Next.js, the XML sitemap should preferably be generated from the site's actual canonical route/data source rather than maintained as an unrelated manual file.
This reduces the risk of:
New pages not being included
Deleted pages remaining listed
Wrong canonical URLs
Staging URLs appearing accidentally
The agency should verify the generated XML sitemap manually before launch.
SEARCH CONSOLE
After production launch:
Confirm /sitemap.xml is publicly accessible.
Verify the production property in Google Search Console.
Submit the XML sitemap.
Check for indexing/crawl errors.
Monitor periodically after major website changes.
This is an implementation task, not public website copy.
URL CONSISTENCY
Every HTML Sitemap link must use the final canonical URL.
Avoid simultaneously linking versions such as:
/how-we-help/back-lower-back-pain
if only one is the approved canonical page.
Internal navigation, breadcrumbs, HTML Sitemap and XML Sitemap should all point to the same canonical URL version.
NO SEO SPAM
“Best physiotherapist in Rohini for back pain, knee pain, neck pain, frozen shoulder…”
Do not repeat locality keywords.
The sitemap exists for:
Navigation + discoverability + clean site structure
not to manufacture rankings.
FINAL AGENCY CONTROL
Use a two- or three-column desktop structure
Use simple nested links
Automatically populate suitable sections from the live route structure
Add published Patient Stories and Resources later
The agency must not:
Add removed/superseded pages
Add unpublished placeholder pages
Add a separate Bankart page
Add Hip & Groin Pain
Add a separate standalone TMJ page
Add locality doorway pages
Add the Thank You page
Add the 404 page
Create a conventional How We Help content page merely for the sitemap
Keyword-stuff link labels
Allow the HTML and XML sitemaps to drift away from the actual live website
Professional Rehabilitation Should Never Feel Impersonal
Whether you are recovering from pain, surgery, neurological change or mobility limitation, you deserve rehabilitation that feels attentive, structured and responsive.
