Home Physiotherapy

There are many reasons why you may not be able to visit us in clinic or prefer to be treated at home. Our primary purpose is to give you the best opportunity to make a full recovery.

No matter how mild or complex your needs, our Home Physio service means you can receive a thorough assessment and treatment in the comfort of your own home. Your Physio will create a tailor-made programme for you: taking into consideration your condition, environment, resources, and all aspects of your life.

We can help with:

Post surgery rehabilitation

For patients leaving hospital post-surgery or after a period of illness, ensuring a smooth transition of rehabilitation is key. This can be a daunting and challenging time, but we work diligently at maintaining links with consultants and hospital teams so that we have all the information we need to continue your recovery journey safely at home.

Your physiotherapist will carry out a thorough assessment to understand your physical problems and limitations, and will show you exercises to help improve muscle strength, restore mobility, and help you feel more confident returning to your daily routine.

Neurological rehabilitation

Neuro disorders such as Stroke, Brain Injury, Parkinson’s or MS can cause problems in movement, balance, swallowing, talking, and even breathing. Our team will help you re-learn movement patterns, helping you return to the activities of daily living you were able to do before, improving your quality of life.

We can also arrange occupational therapy and speech and language therapy if you need this in addition to physiotherapy.

Respiratory physiotherapy

Sometimes called “chest physiotherapy”, this is a specialist area of physiotherapy that focuses on conditions related to your breathing and lungs, including asthma, bronchiectasis, pneumonia and post-Covid.

If you have symptoms such as shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing, or difficulty clearing phlegym, a specialist physiotherapist can assess you and provide you with a bespoke pulmonary rehabilitation programme as well as lifestyle and energy conservation advice.

Aged care physiotherapy

The aging process is part of all our lives, where our bodies go through changes to muscle strength, bone density, posture and balance. These changes can lead to mobility and balance problems, general weakness, aches and pains, and susceptibility to falls.
Research shows early physiotherapy intervention can significantly improve confidence and enable an older person to retain a level of independence. Our home physio team will conduct a thorough assessment and focus on your medical history, home and surroundings, and your support network. We will provide advice, education and exercise programmes to everyone involves so that you are fully supported in reaching your maximum potential.

Care home visits

We are proud to work with some of the best residential care homes in London and the South. Our role is to ensure that care home residents get support after a fall or during sickness so they stay out of hospital, or to help them get admitted back to hospital at the right time and help coordinate their discharge.
By working closely with managers, nurses and carers, we provide excellent quality of care by taking into account the mobility needs of their residents. Our specialist physios have a range of expertise including seating and wheelchair improvements, hoist and sling advice, splinting and posture management, training to staff, and regular exercise and mobility practice for their residents.

Musculoskeletal (MSK) care and specialist services

This covers everything from aches, pains, stiffness and/or weakness in our muscles, bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. Injuries can be caused by playing sport, recreational activities, repetitive work-related movements or when doing a simple task.
An MSK Physiotherapist can help with a range of common conditions including back, neck and shoulder pain, sciatica, knee problems, foot and ankle injuries, and more.
Plus if you’re unable to visit clinic we can provide several of our Specialist Physiotherapy services at home, including Pelvic Health, Wrist & Hand, 1:1 Pilates, and Women’s Health ante and postnatal care.

We believe everyone should feel empowered to achieve their best in the secure and familiar surroundings of their own home and their community.
