Home Physiotherapy

Who would benefit from At-Home Physiotherapy?

Those who would find it difficult to travel to any of our clinics for whatever reason will find home physiotherapy helpful. This includes but is not limited to the conditions like:

• Post-op rehabilitation.
• Musculoskeletal issues, such as pain in the knees, back, shoulders or neck, etc.
• Impairment in movement, function, or balance.
• Troubles moving around the house or garden.
• Sports injuries or injuries due to vehicle/automobile accidents.
• Anxiety about leaving the house.

Why Home Physiotherapy Works Better

1. Offers Personal Safety

The primary benefits from physiotherapy at home is security. It relieves an injured and probably anxious person of the load of transportation (from home to the physiotherapy clinic and back).

For a patient who is in severe pain, it is quite difficult and dangerous to make it to their appointments at the clinic. Although patients' resilience should be applauded, the real issue is that driving to and from a clinic is troublesome. With safety concerns in mind, it's no surprise that at-home physical therapy has begun to gain traction.  

In physio at home, you only need to set a day and time of the appointment. To provide excellent evaluation and treatment for your ailment, our physiotherapist will make the trip to your house.

2. Enhanced Individual Focus 

A physiotherapist may give a patient their whole attention in the privacy of their own home. Additionally, this situation allows the therapist to observe the patient's challenges in real-time. It gives them a clear idea of patients' struggles within their everyday context. Based on that they can offer quick, customised solutions and advice. 

3. More Accurate Assessment

Treatment for patients begins with assessment. It forms the cornerstone of a physiotherapy session.  If it is inaccurate, all subsequent assumptions are false and will cause you to recover more slowly.  

So, when the Physiotherapist enters your home, they can analyse your surroundings and make note of any elements that are working against you. The quick and simple advice that follows could make a great impact on your recuperation.

4. Empowerment Through Family Engagement 

Inviting a therapist into the home also invites the family to become an active part of the healing journey. This engagement fosters a supportive atmosphere at the patient's home. 

Plus, empowers family members with the knowledge and skills to assist in exercises and recognise progress. Such communal support is invaluable, often serving as the backbone of the patient's motivation and determination to improve.

5. Integration of Real-Life Functionality 

The ability to tailor exercises to the patient's environment is a unique facet of home-based therapy. 

A physiotherapist can integrate the patient's furniture and living conditions into the rehabilitation plan. It makes the exercises inherently functional and directly translatable to daily activities.
