Helping you recover using physiotherapy in the comfort of your home

FAQ - Your local questions

Yes โ€” post-operative rehabilitation at home is one of our core services. We regularly support people recovering from procedures like knee replacement (TKR) and hip replacement (THR), whether discharged from the NHS Royal Berkshire Hospital or the private Circle Reading Hospital, and can usually begin within a few days of discharge.

Yes. Emmer Green Ward is the Royal Berkshire Hospital’s specialist hip fracture unit, and rebuilding strength and confidence after a hip fracture at home is one of our core services. We can usually begin within a few days of discharge, continuing the rehabilitation started on the ward โ€” gait re-education, mobility, and reducing the risk of a further fall.

Yes โ€” we’re a private service, so no referral is needed from a GP or a hospital. Our physiotherapists visit patients in their own homes across Caversham, Lower Earley, Tilehurst and Woodley, with no NHS waiting list and no clinic to travel to. Contact us directly and we can usually begin within days.

Yes โ€” dementia care is a particular specialism. We help people stay mobile, reduce falls and maintain independence at home across Reading, from Caversham to Woodley, working closely with families every step of the way.

Yes โ€” alongside the city centre, we regularly visit the Reading suburbs of Caversham, Tilehurst, Emmer Green and Lower Earley, as well as nearby villages like Sonning. If you’re just outside these areas, get in touch and we’ll confirm we can help.

Yes. Families often come to us after a relative has moved into a care home following a stay at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, when the physiotherapy that had them walking on the ward stops once they’ve settled in. Our Reading physiotherapists visit the home, agree times with the care team, and work one to one on standing, walking and confidence after a fall.

No. We are not another pair of hands at the same tasks — we are there to change what those tasks require. A good deal of our work is with the carers themselves: showing them how a transfer can be done so that she contributes to it, which parts of dressing she should be given time to attempt, when to prompt and when to step in. They are in the house far more than we are, so anything that is going to stick has to work inside their visit rather than alongside it.
