Practice in your actual environment

Flexible scheduling that fits your life

Who benefits from at-home physical therapy
Post-surgical patients
If you’re recovering from joint replacement, spinal surgery, or other procedures requiring rehabilitation, at-home PT provides expert care without the challenge of traveling to appointments during early recovery.
Individuals with mobility limitations
Chronic pain, balance problems, or difficulty walking make clinic visits challenging. In-home therapy brings treatment to you, ensuring you receive necessary care without transportation barriers.
Older adults prioritizing independence
Maintain function, prevent falls, and stay independent in your home through rehabilitation programs designed for your goals and delivered in the environment where you live.
Frequently asked questions
Is at-home physical therapy as effective as clinic-based therapy?
Yes, research shows at-home physical therapy produces equivalent or better outcomes compared to clinic-based treatment for most conditions. You receive the same skilled interventions, therapeutic exercises, and manual techniques a clinic provides, but with advantages including undivided therapist attention, treatment in your actual living environment, reduced stress from eliminated travel, and better adherence since therapy is more convenient. Your therapist brings necessary equipment and adapts treatment to your space. For certain conditions like balance training or post-surgical recovery, home-based therapy may actually be more effective because we address real-world challenges in your living environment rather than artificial clinic settings.
Does insurance cover at-home physical therapy?
Yes, Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurance plans cover at-home physical therapy when medically necessary and ordered by your physician. Coverage requirements and visit limits vary by plan, but in-home PT is reimbursed equivalently to outpatient clinic therapy when you meet criteria. We verify your coverage before starting, obtain necessary authorizations, and handle all billing to maximize your benefits. Your out-of-pocket costs are typically limited to copays, deductibles, or coinsurance amounts specified by your plan.
What conditions does at-home physical therapy treat?
At-home physical therapy treats virtually any condition requiring rehabilitation including post-surgical recovery (joint replacements, spinal surgery, fracture repair), orthopedic injuries (sprains, strains, tendinitis, arthritis), neurological conditions (stroke, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis), balance and fall prevention, chronic pain management, sports injuries, and general weakness or deconditioning. If a condition requires skilled physical therapy intervention, we can typically provide effective treatment in your home. Your therapist evaluates your specific situation and determines if home-based care is appropriate or if specialized equipment or clinic-based treatment would be more beneficial.
How do I get started with at-home physical therapy?
