What Does A Home Care Physical Therapist Do?

Physical therapy is one of the most beneficial forms of injury rehabilitation.  It is non-invasive and uses physical-based activities to promote healing from within. While this form of treatment is beneficial for many people, our team at Home Advantage Rehabilitation Solutions knows that, unfortunately, not all patients have access to this level of care. When an injury is severe enough, leaving the house for treatment can be difficult, or an unviable option altogether. If this scenario applies to you, consider reaching out to our team right away. We offer in-home physical therapy to help give the patients who can’t leave their house the treatment they deserve.  

What Is Home Care Physical Therapy?

When it comes to standard physical therapy versus home care physical therapy, there is only one key difference; it takes place from the comfort of your own home. Our home care physical therapist will travel directly to your house and teach you a variety of stretches and strength exercises targeted to promote healing in the affected area. They will also likely bring equipment aimed to aid in the rehabilitation process, which may include:

• Electronic stimulation devices.
• Foam rollers.
• Massage tables.
• Ice and heat packs.
