Physiotherapy Services at Home

Rehabilitation Services We Offer

Treatment starts with an assessment at home. The physiotherapist asks about the problem and your medical history, checks movement, strength and pain, and agrees goals with you. The plan can include exercises, stretching, hands-on techniques and advice for daily activities, and family members can learn exercises to practise between visits. The number of sessions depends on the condition and on how the person responds. These are our main services:

Home Rehabilitation

Home rehabilitation helps people who find it hard to travel, such as older adults, people with a disability and anyone recovering from an illness or a hospital stay. The physiotherapist works on strength, balance, walking and daily tasks like getting out of bed or using the stairs, in the place where they happen.

Orthopedic rehabilitation treats problems of the bones, joints, muscles and ligaments, such as back and neck pain, knee and shoulder pain, arthritis and recovery after a fracture. Treatment combines exercise, stretching and hands-on techniques to ease pain and restore movement.

Sports Injury Rehabilitation

Sprains, strains, muscle tears and joint injuries can stop you training or playing. Rehabilitation works on pain, movement, strength and balance in stages, so you can return to your sport safely and lower the chance of the injury coming back.

Post-Operative Rehabilitation

After an operation such as a joint replacement, fracture fixation or spinal surgery, physiotherapy helps you get moving again. The physiotherapist follows your surgeon’s advice and builds a plan for movement, strength and walking, with sessions at home while travelling is difficult.

Pediatric Rehabilitation

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of conditions that affect movement, muscle tone and posture, starting in early childhood. Physiotherapy works on stretching, strength, sitting, standing and walking, with advice on positioning and equipment, to help the child become as independent as possible.

Physiotherapy at Home: How It Works

At home: Our physiotherapist comes to your home in almost all areas of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, Monday to Sunday, 9 am to 9 pm. There is no travel or waiting room, and exercises are practised with your own bed, chair and stairs, which makes them easier to keep up between visits. This suits older adults, people recovering from surgery or a stroke, and anyone for whom travelling is painful.

Female physiotherapist: A female physiotherapist is available for home visits in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. This can suit women’s health physiotherapy or anyone who would feel more comfortable with a female therapist. Just ask when you book.

Other options: If a home visit is not what you need, patients can also visit us at our partner clinic locations in Islamabad (G-8 Markaz) and Rawalpindi (Saddar). Physiotherapy is also available as an online video session, which can suit people outside our home-visit area or anyone who wants exercise guidance between visits.

How to start:

  1. Call 051-8776556 (9 am to 6 pm), WhatsApp 0300-6844361 or book online.
  2. Tell us the patient’s age, the main problem, any recent operation or doctor’s advice, your area, and whether you would like a home visit, a clinic visit or a video session, or prefer a female physiotherapist.
  3. We confirm the day and time on WhatsApp. At the first visit the physiotherapist assesses the patient and explains the plan.

Not sure whether we visit your area? Send your location on WhatsApp and we will confirm before booking. For sudden weakness, numbness, chest pain or a fall with a possible broken bone, get emergency medical care first.
