We are delighted to announce the launch of our new home visit service, bringing our clinical expertise and evidence-based physiotherapy directly to your door.
At SHP Health, our innovative approach ensures you receive personalised care, tailored to your unique needs and goals. Our experienced consultant-led Physiotherapy team is committed to supporting your physical, emotional, and psychological wellbeing, all within the comfort and privacy of your own home.
By offering this service, we aim to remove barriers to you accessing the care you need, while strengthening our connection within the community.
At SHP Health, we believe in empowering you to reach your full potential through positive movement. Our highly skilled team will fully assess your condition and create a high-quality evidence-based, individually tailored management plan and rehabilitation program for you. We use proven methods to help you live with greater confidence and independence.
Whether you’re recovering from an injury or surgery, returning home after an illness, managing a chronic condition, or simply looking to maintain your health, SHP at Home is here to support your wellbeing. Let us bring the expertise you need directly to your door.
SHP Physiotherapy at Home is perfect for when you require musculoskeletal physiotherapy assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation but are unable to attend our clinic at SHP Health on the Denbies Wine Estate.
Post-Surgery Support: After surgery, regular physiotherapy in the early weeks can be crucial for your recovery. If you’re unable to drive or leave home, arranging care can be challenging. We can provide support by visiting you during this important phase, and when you’re ready, we can seamlessly transition your rehabilitation to our practice on the Denbies Wine Estate.
Rehabilitation After a Hospital Stay: Prolonged bed rest can lead to weakness and deconditioning, particularly for those in later life or those with complex medical conditions. We’re here to help you regain strength, build confidence, and support your recovery as you return to your usual activities.
Injury Recovery: From sports injuries to back pain, we treat a wide range of muscle and joint injuries. If your schedule or other commitments make it difficult to visit us, we’ll come to you, ensuring you get the care you need, when you need it.
Appointments typically last between 45 and 60 minutes and are available in either the morning or afternoon. Prior to your first visit, you will receive two forms to complete. These will provide your physiotherapist with valuable information about you (including your past medical history), your environment and how your condition is affecting your everyday activities.
During your first session, your physiotherapist will take a detailed history of your condition, and discuss your expectations, goals, and any concerns you may have. After this, they will conduct a thorough assessment, including range of movement and strength testing, and where relevant, run through a number of functional tests. Where appropriate, they will provide you with a clear diagnosis and discuss the available evidence-based treatment options. Together, you will set a personalised management plan and agree on the number and timing of any further appointments that may be required.
After your session, your physiotherapist will send you a comprehensive summary, including any relevant information, home exercises, advice, and self-management recommendations.
