Home Physiotherapy
Why is Home Therapy service preferred?
-
Time saving - no time spent travelling
-
Minimal planning - no need to worry about caregiver availability and transport
-
"Real" life training - better transference of functional training into actual home environment or situations
-
Lower risk of acquiring infections - especially for immunocompromised patients
Apart from the above, home therapy is a necessary service as it may be the only option for persons who are severely disabled and immobile.
Examples of how home therapy may look like:

What is the duration and fees for Home Therapy?

Do I need any equipment or make any preparations for Home Therapy?
There is no need to make any special arrangements or buy any equipment. During the home visits, our physiotherapist will assess and advise if there is any need for additional tools. More often than not, our physiotherapist will make use of resources that are already available or they will bring along equipment that they may wish to use during the session.
