Our specialised approach brings healthcare professionals directly to the homes of NDIS participants, ensuring accessibility, convenience, and personalised care.

This allows for tailored treatment plans and exercises that are designed to maximize results and improve overall well-being. The personalized approach fosters a strong patient-provider relationship, promoting trust, comfort, and effective communication.

3. Holistic Approach: Home visit NDIS services enable physiotherapists and exercise physiologists to consider the participant's home environment when devising treatment plans. They can assess and address potential challenges and hazards that might affect mobility and independence. This holistic approach empowers individuals to actively engage in their therapy and make necessary modifications within their living space to support their overall health and functionality.

4. Motivation and Independence: Exercising and undergoing therapy in the familiar and comfortable setting of one's home can significantly boost motivation and confidence. It eliminates the anxiety and stress that may arise from unfamiliar environments and enables individuals to focus on their progress. This, in turn, encourages a sense of independence, empowerment, and a positive mindset, vital for achieving optimal outcomes.

Osteoarthritis and Exercise

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease affecting the joints of the body, especially the hips, knees, spine and hands.  The symptoms of OA are usually pain and difficulty moving the joint. Because of this, people living with OA can tend to avoid activity leading to weaker muscles and joint instability as well as other health problems linked to being sedentary.  Although OA is often described as resulting from wear and tear, inflammation of the joint is involved and people often experience flare-ups together with periods of reduced symptoms.

It may seem strange that exercising a painful joint can help, but exercise has been shown to actually improve joint health as well as reducing pain.  We know that exercise helps to strengthen the muscles which support and stabilise the joint.  Exercise can also help to improve joint movement and flexibility, making it easier to carry out daily tasks.  There are many different types of exercise which are appropriate for people living with OA including tai chi, water exercise, resistance or aerobic training.  The best exercise to do is one that you enjoy and that fits in with your daily life.

Our team of Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists can work with you to develop an exercise program that is suited to your particular needs and preferences. 

Call 0477 934 546 today to talk to our friendly team.

Rehabilitation Post Stroke

Each year in Australia approximately 55,000 people will suffer a Cerebrovascular Accident (Stroke) and it is a leading cause of disability.

Following a stroke common symptoms patients may experience include weakness or paralysis, altered sensation, poor balance, reduced co-ordination, altered tone and joint pain. These symptoms will vary depending on which area of the brain is affected, and will affect the way we move and function. 

Exercise is an important part of ongoing rehabilitation following a stroke to restore or optimise movement and mobility.  Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists will work with you to set goals and develop the most effective treatment plan to enable you to achieve these goals. 

Treatments will be tailored to your individual needs and will include strengthening exercises, stretching, task-specific practice and manual therapy. Research strongly suggests the more active and involved a person is in their recovery the better the outcome.

Falls prevention

With ageing falls and the fear of falling start to impact on the way the elderly live their lives. In fact 1 in 4 people over 60 years of age will experience a fall each year. The consequences of this can be hip fractures, head injuries, hospital admissions and lead to a loss of independence.

There are many reasons why the risk of falls increase as you age, including decreased strength and proprioception, slowing reflexes and saving ability, increased medications and declining eyesight, as well as external factors such as home environment and footwear.

Physiotherapists are trained to assess all areas that may lead to falls. At Future Physio our specialist home visit team can individually address factors to help you reduce your risk of falls. We are trained in walking aid presciption, exercise and balance training and can develop a program that specifically meets your needs.

Our therapists can work with you on a regular basis to increase your strength and balance or prescribe a program for you to complete in the comfort of your own home.

Falls prevention

As we age falls prevention is crucial in staying healthy in our later years. At least one in four older people have a fall each year and around 10% of all falls result in serious injury requiring hospitalisation. Injuries sustained can include bruising, lacerations, fractures and head injuries.

Falls can be caused by a number of factors including; loss of balance, dizziness, poor eyesight, poor footwear or trip hazards. Poor hydration, alcohol consumption or taking more than five medications can also contribute to falling.

Physiotherapists can tailor exercise programs specifically for each client to improve their leg strength, mobility and balance. Regular exercise is a great way to help prevent falls at home and in the community. Get started today to maintain your independence at home by calling 0477 934 546
