Charlie has been fantastic after my hip replacement, just can't recommend him enough. He was very patient with me while encouraging me with new exercises, and has really helped my confidence to move forward. I've made progress much quicker than I thought I would and that's all thanks to Charlie.

Home Physiotherapy in Southampton
Mobile physiotherapy across Southampton: a full hour with an experienced physiotherapist in your own home, from Shirley to Sholing and out to Totton.
Home Visit Physiotherapy in Southampton
Getting to a clinic in Southampton is hard work when you are recovering. Parking at the General is famously difficult, buses mean stops and walking, and a lift from family means someone taking time off work. So we come to you instead. Every visit is a full hour of physiotherapy in your own home, with an HCPC-registered physiotherapist who knows the city.
We plan our Southampton visits by district, so we can usually offer a morning or afternoon that suits you. That includes flats, retirement developments and care homes. Most of our Southampton clients are older adults. They may be recovering from a fall, an operation or a hospital stay, or living with a neurological condition. For them, getting across the city to a clinic is hard work.
We visit across SO14 to SO19 and SO40:
- City centre (SO14). St Mary's, Bedford Place, Ocean Village, Northam
- West (SO15, SO16). Shirley, Upper Shirley, Freemantle, Millbrook, Maybush, Redbridge, Lordshill, Lordswood
- North (SO16, SO17). Bassett, Chilworth, Highfield, Portswood, Swaythling, St Denys
- East (SO18, SO30). Bitterne, Bitterne Park, Harefield, Townhill Park, West End
- South-east (SO19). Woolston, Sholing, Thornhill, Peartree
- Totton (SO40). Totton, Testwood, Calmore, Eling
You will see the same physiotherapist at every visit, so they get to know your home, your routine and what is getting in the way.

Coming Home From Hospital in Southampton
Wherever you were treated, we can usually start physiotherapy at home within 48 hours of discharge. Starting early is one of the biggest factors in getting your independence back.
- Southampton General Hospital. Coming home after a fall, a fracture, a stroke or a long stay on a ward. We read the discharge plan and usually make the first visit within 48 hours.
- Spire Southampton Hospital. After a hip or knee replacement, we follow your surgeon's protocol from the first week home, so you are not waiting weeks for outpatient physio.
- Royal South Hants Hospital. If you have been seen in outpatients but travelling there is the problem, we can carry on the same programme at home.
- Nuffield Health Wessex Hospital. Recovering from surgery in Chandler's Ford and living in the north of the city? We start rehabilitation at home in the days after discharge.

Hear From Our Clients
Emily is a lovely, engaging, patient and knowledgeable physiotherapist. Her time with my husband during his acute stroke recovery phase has been invaluable. Emily researched and adapted her sessions and exercises to my husband's specific requests and needs. Thank you Emily :-)
I had my first appointment with Charlie last month after coming out of hospital with 5 vertebral fractures. Barely able to walk or do anything for myself. Now 7 weeks later I'm able to walk unaided and do everything to look after myself.
This year my long term orthopaedic conditions and my vestibular migraine have been particularly troublesome. But thanks to Charlie's professional guidance my mobility is greatly improved and I am feeling much more confident when out and about.
After being let down by the NHS I was delighted to find South Coast Home Physiotherapy and it was a real bonus that they come to the home. Emily is skilled, helpful, friendly and solutions focused, providing the 1-1 support my daughter needs.
Professional, reliable and caring. The support from Charlie, our physio, has been invaluable.
Cannot praise them enough! Comprehensive and professional treatment plans that inspire you.
Enormously helpful advice and encouragement. I couldn't recommend more highly.
