Why Home-Based Amputee Rehabilitation?

Travelling to a clinic can be particularly difficult following amputation, especially in the early stages of recovery. Home-based physiotherapy allows us to work with you in your own environment, assessing the practical challenges of your living space and tailoring your rehabilitation to the activities and movements you need most. This approach leads to more relevant, effective and sustainable outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you help both before and after I receive my prosthesis?

Yes. We support clients at all stages, from pre-prosthetic conditioning to prosthetic gait training and long-term functional rehabilitation.

Do you work with the prosthetics team?

With your consent, we are happy to liaise with your prosthetist and wider multidisciplinary team to ensure your rehabilitation is coordinated and effective.

What if I am not planning to use a prosthesis?

We can still provide significant benefit. We focus on maximising your functional independence, whether that involves a prosthesis, wheelchair mobility, or a combination of both.

Do I need a GP referral?

No referral is required. You or a family member can contact us directly to arrange your initial assessment.
