BENEFITS of HOME Physical Therapy Servce

• Convenience – many people find comfort simply from being in their own home. The individual and/or family members do not need to take time off work to accompany loved ones to therapy sessions, or spend money on transport and parking costs. It also eliminates the fatigue that can be experienced with travel as well, therefore conserving one’s energy and motivation for the physio session itself.

• Familiarity – with home physio, you are in a familiar environment and therefore you are at your most comfortable and relaxed. This is turn will enhance treatment, by being in a more relaxed state and enjoying the sessions more. The individual will also become more familiar with the exercises they need to do on their own and will be better prepared to do these exercises in between physio sessions, which in turn will improve their overall outcome. Treatment time can be used to build strength, optimise mobility and take steps towards independence and confidence in your own surroundings.

• Safety – visits to the home can be helpful in providing a risk assessment and advice to make the home environment safer, especially after a fall for example. We can also provide ergonomic advice to help make daily tasks easier to do. In many instances, exercises may be tailored toward navigating your own home, therein giving you the practical skills you may need to live safely.

• Post surgery – for anyone who has had an operation, such as a knee or hip replacement, physiotherapy is key to making a good recovery. Driving post-surgery is often not possible, or advisable and even getting a lift from carers, friends or family can be difficult, due to work and other commitments. Rehabilitation at home can be the best or only solution. A series of home appointments can ensure that no time is lost post-op, from moving towards recovery with the benefits of a personalised physio program, while a patient is unable to travel.
