How does Instagram decide who sees a post?
Instagram now ranks heavily on sends — how many people share your post into a DM or a WhatsApp group. Saves come next, then watch time on Reels. Likes barely register any more. Reels reach people who do not follow you; feed posts and carousels mostly reach people who already do, which is why you need both. The words in your name field, bio and captions are searchable, so putting 'bridal makeup Islamabad' in the name field does more than thirty hashtags.
Formats, lengths, caption limits and the best posting windows in Pakistan Standard Time are the same whatever trade you are in, so they live in one place rather than being repeated on every guide.

Should physiotherapy clinics be anywhere else?
Instagram first. After it is running steadily, these are the next platforms worth your time in this trade — in this order.
| Platform | Priority | How often | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| TikTok | #1 | 4 to 5 videos a week | Movement is the product, and a 30-second exercise demonstration is the most shareable thing this trade can possibly make. |
| YouTube | #2 | 4 Shorts a week plus 2 long videos a month | Recovery-timeline videos get found by someone three days after their surgery, which is exactly when they need to call you. |
| #4 | 3 posts a week | Older patients and stroke families search Facebook specifically for a physiotherapist who does home visits in their sector. |

Instagram questions from physiotherapy clinics
Is Instagram actually worth it for physiotherapy clinics?
Desk workers and gym-goers in the F sectors save exercise Reels and book the moment the pain comes back. We would rank it number 3 of the platforms worth your time in this trade, and run it at 3 reels a week plus stories.
How often should a physiotherapist business post on Instagram?
3 Reels a week plus stories. That figure is set by what this trade can sustain, not by what the platform would like. Posting three times a week for a year beats posting daily for a month and then stopping.
Should physiotherapy clinics be on Instagram before anything else?
No. TikTok comes first for physiotherapy clinics — Instagram is number 3 here. It is worth adding once the first platform is steady, for the reason above.
What is the first thing a physiotherapist account gets wrong on Instagram?
Posting about the business instead of about the customer's problem. Being called a maalish service costs you both your fee and your referrals. That is what your Instagram posts should be answering, in 3 reels a week plus stories
What does it cost to have someone run my Instagram account?
From PKR 15,000 a month with us. For physiotherapy clinics we usually recommend Starter at PKR 15,000. One physiotherapist filming three exercise clips a week does not need a full production package. Starter edits eight of them, posts daily on TikTok, and writes the captions that make them findable.
