At-home physio for seniors
Our skilled physiotherapists visit you at home to provide a range of services, including:
- A thorough assessment of your medical history and current needs
- Hands-on manual therapies like massage and joint mobilisation
- Tailored, progressive exercises to improve mobility and help prevent falls.
Physiotherapy supports healthy ageing
As you get older, it’s important to maintain your mobility so that you can move as confidently and easily as possible.
Kids do that with ease but, as you get older, you may need to work to maintain your mobility.
As a senior, you may:
- Experience age-related changes to your bones, joints and muscles
- Have weaker eyesight due to cataracts, macular degeneration or other vision changes
- Live with chronic conditions like diabetes or arthritis
- Take multiple medications
- Be recovering from surgery.
All these things can affect your coordination and balance, increasing the risk of a fall, which can compromise your independence.
Physiotherapy can help you age well so you can continue to enjoy the mental and physical benefits of movement. It plays a key role in:
- Falls prevention or rehabilitation
- Stroke rehabilitation
- Pre- and post-surgery care
- Arthritis and diabetes management
- Improved mental health and wellbeing
- Building confidence in exercising.
Benefits of in-home physiotherapy care for seniors
Mobile physio can be tremendously helpful for seniors simply because it comes to you.
You don’t have to battle traffic if you still drive.
You don’t have to organise a lift or wait for a bus if you no longer have your licence.
You don’t have to find your way around an unfamiliar place.
We do all that for you. You simply put the kettle on!
Once we get there, you’ll experience the same high-quality care we’d offer you in our clinic. It’s just in your place rather than ours.
Another benefit of in-home physiotherapy care is that it happens in the same place you’ll be doing your at-home exercises throughout the week. We can show you exactly where you could sit or stand to do your exercises and which tools you could use. We can help you set everything up so you’re confident and ready to go.

More than a list of exercises
You’ve probably seen a physiotherapist before. Most often, you’ll come away with a list of exercises to do during the week to improve your strength, mobility or flexibility. That’s good – but we think you deserve more.
We’re big believers in hands-on treatment. Joint mobilisation and soft tissue massage have many proven benefits, including:
