Specialist Assessment
 
We provide high quality patient assessment in your own home which enables us to design a treatment plan/rehabilitation plan for your individual needs.
 
Many patients require assessment or advice from other Health Professionals. We can either involve these on a private basis or work in co-operation with colleagues in the NHS, Social Services and voluntary organisations.
 
Reabilitation Programmes
 
Our programmes are tailor made for your individual requirements and involve specific exercises to increase muscle strength and improve balance and flexibility. This can help make activities like walking easier and is particularly beneficial for people with arthritis and osteoporosis, or those recovering from hip fractures or a hospital stay.
 
Re-education
 
We can help people who have had strokes or other neurological conditions re-learn basic movements to increase independence. We achieve this through facilitation of normal movement and appropriate exercise.
 
Maintenance Programmes
 
For long-term chronic conditions, where mobility has been reduced and/or the patient is wheelchair dependent we offer comprehensive maintenance programmes that help to increase the following:
 
  • Joint range of movement and muscle length
  • Muscle strength
  • Postural control
  • Cardiovascular fitness
  • General stamina/exercise tolerance

 

These programmes will help to reduce:

 

  • Pain, Discomfort and stiffness
  • Muscle Shortening and stiffness
  • Muscle shortening and contractures
  • Spasticity
  • Problems caused by poor sitting posture

 

Preventative exercise programmes

 

Research has shown that regular exercise irrespective of age, can quickly produce:

 

  • Increased muscle strength
  • Improved balance
  • Improved flexibility
  • Decreased muscle tension
  • Decreased joint pain
  • Psychogical benefits

Our programmes also offer the general benefits of cardiovascular exercise, such as improved fitness, endurance and weight loss.
