In-Home Physical Therapy for Seniors

In-home physical therapy allows a patient to recover from an injury or condition right in the comfort of their home. A highly trained physical therapist will assess your condition and work with you to build a goals-focused treatment plan. In-home physical therapy for seniors works to alleviate pain, improve your range of motion, provide more balance and stability, prevent falls and re-injuries, and allow you to live independently for as long as possible.

 

Conditions treated by in-home physical therapy

Home health physical therapy can treat a wide range of conditions and injuries. After an injury or surgery procedure, it’s common for the affected body part to be immobile for a long period during the healing process. A key part of physical therapy is ensuring that we safely begin using the injured areas of the body to regain full range of motion. As time passes and without professional help from a physical therapist, there’s the potential to permanently lose the full range of motion in affected limbs and body parts.

If you or a loved one needs at-home physical therapy, our highly-trained physical therapists are here to help. Here are a few reasons home care physical therapy may be needed:

  • Reduced mobility
  • Surgical procedures such as joint replacements
  • Avoiding surgery
  • Need for improved balance
  • Chronic aches
  • Chronic pains
  • Other musculoskeletal pain
  • Recovery from stroke or paralysis
  • Fractures
  • Sprains
  • Broken bones
  • Arthritis
  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Injuries to ligaments or muscle

Our physical therapists will customize a tailored home health PT treatment plan to help you reach your goals in the comfort of your own home. Physical therapy can help reduce symptoms such as aches or pains and help you move more freely around your home. If you have a condition such as Parkinson’s Disease where your mobility is limited, in-home physical therapy could be a great solution for rehabilitation.
