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.

After hospital

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.
