Online Physiotherapy:
We help older adults stay independent and able to look after themselves in their own home. (Despite challenges with your walking or getting about, stroke, or Parkinson’s Disease.)
- Are you worried about how staying at home and that social distancing and isolation is going to affect your ability to live an active and independent life?
- Are you concerned that you need help to keep your independence while socially distancing or to get your independence back after a fall? Or to prevent you from falling again?
- You may be living with Parkinson’s Disease and are worried that because you are unable to access your usual classes and keep up with your exercises and you are worried that your symptoms will get worse over the coming weeks to months?
- Or maybe you are a stroke survivor who is concerned about losing your independence around the house because you don’t get enough of the right kind of exercise and support you need to keep active the right way?
You may well be thinking that because you cannot see a physiotherapist ‘face-to-face’ there is no option than to go-it-alone!
If this sounds like you or someone you know then you have come to the right place.
With new technology from iPads and Tablets, Lap-tops and PC’s to smartphones – most if not all of these things have built in video cameras and give you easy access to the internet. That is ALL YOU NEED to get access to the best support available to help you as an individual!
Whether you need help to get your independence back after a fall or are looking for the best way possible to help you live an active and independent life with Parkinson’s or have had a stroke and want to keep pushing your recovery forward – we are here to help!
When people think of Physiotherapy, they think about the ‘hands-on’ work that we do, from deep tissue massage to the ‘magic sponge’ seen at football games. I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that Physiotherapy is so much more than ‘hands-on’ treatment. And, actually, most of what we do only requires us to be able to speak to you and find out about you, the difficulties you have and what problems you want solved and also to see you and how you move.
The great news is that this can all be done through video chat!
So, if you have a tablet or iPad, smart phone or iPhone or a laptop then we can absolutely help you solve your problems.
In fact, we are already helping people in just this way:
- We are helping support our clients to stop falling and get their independence back after suffering a fall.
- We are supporting people living with Parkinson’s Disease to keep active and independent in the right way while never having to leave their own home.
- We are helping stroke survivors continue their recovery and improve their walking and independence or regain better use of their hand.
All of this is through online video chat on your tablet, smart phone laptop or PC!
Frequently Asked Questions:
Trust me, with modern technology it really is not that hard – I say this from experience and the fact that I am a bit of a technophobe. If I can get it to work, then so can you.
Q: But… I don’t know how it works or what I need to do to get it to work!
That’s no problem, we can absolutely help get you set up. We will call before your appointment and go through getting everything set up.
Once your set-up all you need to do is click on a link from an email we send you and we are good to go!
We will even phone you at the start of your appointment to make sure you know what to do!
