WHY CHOOSE US

Physiotherapy plays a vital and important role in working with older adults. They are involved in preventing disease and disabilities, treating current conditions, managing symptoms and preventing further deconditioning when living with multiple long term health conditions.

Physiotherapy assessments and treatments in the comfort of your own home at a time that is right for you.

Assessments will look at your full functional movement, strength, posture and co-ordination with everyday activities such as walking or climbing the stairs. You will sit with the therapist to discuss your concerns and wishes to create short- and long-term goals which will lead onto the development of your treatment plan.

Treatments may involve a combination of education/advice, hands on techniques as well as individual exercise prescriptions with the aim to get you back to your previous level of function or prevent further deconditioning.
