Home Visit Physiotherapy in Winchester

Winchester is a lovely place to live, but a tricky one to recover in. There are hills up to the station and the hospital, steps to front doors and narrow stairs in older houses. City-centre parking is hard too. All this makes getting to a clinic hard when you are not moving well. So we come to you. Every visit is a full hour of physiotherapy in your own home with an HCPC-registered physiotherapist.

Most people we see in Winchester are getting back on their feet after a hip or knee replacement, a fall or a hospital stay. Or they are living with a neurological condition, such as Parkinson's or the effects of a stroke. Families often arrange visits for a parent, and we keep them updated after every visit.

We visit across SO21, SO22, SO23 and SO24:

  • City centre (SO23). The city centre, Hyde, St Giles Hill, Winnall
  • West and north (SO22). Fulflood, Weeke, Harestock, Teg Down, Littleton
  • South (SO22, SO23). Stanmore, Badger Farm, Olivers Battery, St Cross
  • Villages north (SO21, SO23). Kings Worthy, Headbourne Worthy, Itchen Abbas, the Dever valley
  • Villages south (SO21). Twyford, Otterbourne, Colden Common, Compton
  • Alresford (SO24). New Alresford, Old Alresford, Ropley, Cheriton

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.

Older Homes, Steep Streets

Much of Winchester is period houses, cottages and flats above shops. They come with steep stairs, uneven thresholds and front steps. That is exactly where practising in your own home pays off. We work on the stairs you climb every day, the chair you get out of and the path to your front door. We also suggest simple changes that make falls less likely.

After hospital

Coming Home From Hospital in Winchester

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.

  • Royal Hampshire County Hospital. Coming home after an operation, a fall or a stay on a ward. We read the discharge plan and usually make the first visit within 48 hours.
  • Sarum Road Hospital. After a private hip or knee replacement, we follow your surgeon's protocol at home from the first week, rather than you travelling back for outpatient sessions.
  • Nuffield Health Wessex Hospital. Had your operation in Chandler's Ford? We pick up rehabilitation at home in Winchester in the days after discharge.
  • Before your operation. Prehab means getting ready before a joint replacement. It makes recovery easier, and the same physiotherapist carries on with you afterwards.
