Home Visits

Home visit Physiotherapy, also known as Domiciliary care, is ideal for those who need physiotherapy but are unable to visit a clinic.

At Whitson Wellness, we proudly offer home physiotherapy as one of our services as we know we can help you with daily activities like walking, climbing stairs, or getting in and out of bed. Whether you have balance issues, have suffered falls, or are recovering from surgery, we can help improve your strength, balance, mobility, and confidence both at home and outdoors.

What Home Physiotherapy Involves:

Initial Telephone Triage: Please call the clinic on 01494 935925 so we can gather details about your situation and discuss how we can tailor our service to you.

First Appointment: This is approximately a 45 minute session and entails all the elements of a regular initial Physiotherapy appointment.

Follow-Up Appointments: This is approximately a 30 minute session tailored to your goals, focusing on improving your quality of life.

Benefits of Home Physiotherapy:

Convenience: No need for travel, saving time and reducing fatigue.
Familiarity: Comfortable and relaxed in your own home, enhancing treatment effectiveness.
Safety: Home risk assessments and ergonomic advice to make daily tasks easier.

Why It Costs More:
Home physiotherapy involves additional travel and time away from the clinic. However we believe the benefits far outweigh these costs and if it becomes appropriate we can then arrange follow ups in clinic at a later date.
