Home based physiotherapy in Crawley
Physiotherapy Crawley
DO YOU NEED HOME VISIT PHYSIOTHERAPY?
After working in the NHS for 16 years, I noticed a pattern of elderly patients coming in and out of hospital.
These patients would have a fall, recover in the hospital, and then go back home. However, they were never fully rehabilitated.
Their fear of falling again, coupled with muscle stiffness, meant that they avoided movement.
​
Prolonged static movement can quickly happen, like sitting in a chair for several hours. This, in turn, leads to muscles seizing up and can cause another fall.
This cycle happens to many elderly patients and is a tricky one to break out of.
We are an ageing population, and the NHS is under much strain.
This leads to long waiting lists, and many elderly people have to wait months before receiving care.
Here at The Well-Balanced Centre, I want to break this cycle. I believe in rehabilitating our patients not just for the present but for the future as well. This means that we take extra time and care to make sure you are fully back on your feet.

The Benefits
NO LONG WAITING LISTS
There are lots of benefits to receiving physiotherapy treatment.
One of the brilliant things about it is that it involves you in your own healing process.
Rather than isolating one area, physiotherapy takes into account the ‘whole person’. This allows for greater healing and can often make a patient feel more motivated. Other benefits include:
-
Increased mobility
-
Increased strength and balance
-
Movement confidence gained
-
Significantly reduced pain and stiffness
-
Helping with joint stiffness
-
Having hazards spotted and effectively removed
-
Preventing future falls
-
Rehabilitation
-
A tailored exercise plan
One of the most important benefits of physiotherapy is an increase of movement confidence.
The treatment will allow you to feel happy and confident when performing everyday activities.
Initial Assessment
OFFERING THE BEST PATIENT CARE
In your initial assessment, your specialist will have a chat with you about what your goals are.
These movement goals can include anything you want but try to stay realistic.
Setting one big goal and a few smaller, milestone goals, for example, is a great way to start. Your specialist will also chat with you about a tailored exercise plan and make suggestions for daily exercises.
Another important part of your initial assessment is hazard spotting and mobility aid assessing.
Your specialist will be able to spot hazards in the home. This includes things like doorways, rugs or furniture. Removing these will be crucial in preventing future falls. They can also suggest mobility aids to improve your quality of life.
