Home health care physical therapy

Everyone deals with a little physical pain in life. More often than not, we get over pain with a little time or some simple home remedies. However, there are conditions and injuries that cause long-lasting pain and severely limit your range of motion, so you can’t live a full quality of life.

One way that many people deal with physical pain and recovering from injuries or chronic conditions is with physical therapy. Physical therapists are health care professionals who specialize in treatments that focus on building up muscles and soft tissue. These treatments can help reduce pain and improve your mobility so you can live your life the way you want to live it.

At Advent Physical Therapy, we have many locations where patients from different areas can come visit our physical therapists for treatment. However, not everyone is able to travel to receive treatment. That’s why we offer home health care physical therapy (also known as in-home physical therapy) as an option for people who need treatment but cannot travel to one of our clinics.

What is home health care physical therapy?

In-home physical therapy is a service offered by our physical therapists in which they can provide treatment for you in your home. In-home physical therapy is covered by most major insurance plans, so if traveling is difficult for you, you should talk to our staff about having one of our team members come to visit you for treatment.

In-home physical therapy treatments are nearly identical to in-office treatments. Your physical therapist will evaluate your condition and review your medical history and recovery goals. They’ll use this information to develop a personalized treatment plan designed to help you reach these goals. 

Our physical therapists are highly trained and skilled in providing a number of treatments for patients in their homes, including:

• Hands-on therapy
• Therapeutic exercises
• Balance exercises
• Pain management techniques
• Patient education

Who needs in-home physical therapy?

In-home physical therapy can be beneficial for anyone who has trouble leaving their home. Conditions that cause a loss of functional mobility or an intense amount of pain might keep you rooted in your home. Some examples of conditions that might make it risky for you to travel include:

• Post-surgical recovery from a joint replacement operation
• Traumatic injuries, such as fractures that prevent you from driving
• Stroke
• Multiple sclerosis
• Parkinson’s disease

If you feel like you need in-home physical therapy and don’t see your condition on this list, don’t worry. We can still help you. Talk to our staff members about your condition and we’ll make sure you get the treatment you need.

While everyone in our clinics would be happy to see you, we understand that it’s not always possible to travel to visit us. We’re proud to offer in-home physical therapy services that help patients like you continue to get the treatment you need from the comfort and safety of your own home.
