Homecare physiotherapy — where a qualified physiotherapist visits you at home rather than requiring you to travel to a clinic — is one of the fastest-growing healthcare services in India. For patients recovering from surgery, managing a chronic neurological condition, or dealing with severe pain or disability, receiving expert physiotherapy without leaving home can make the difference between a good recovery and a poor one.

What Conditions Can Be Treated at Home?

**Neurological:** Stroke rehabilitation, Parkinson's disease, traumatic brain injury, Guillain-Barré syndrome, multiple sclerosis, post-ICU neurological recovery.

**Orthopaedic:** Knee replacement (TKR), hip replacement (THR), rotator cuff surgery, spinal surgery recovery, fracture rehabilitation, back and neck pain.

**Cardiopulmonary:** COPD, post-cardiac bypass, heart failure, post-COVID respiratory rehabilitation.

**Complex Recovery:** Post-ICU syndrome, sepsis recovery, multi-system injury rehabilitation.

**General:** Sports injuries, muscle and joint pain, functional training, post-operative rehabilitation.

  • Acute back or joint pain: 6–12 sessions over 4–8 weeks
  • Post-knee or hip replacement: 20–30 sessions over 3 months
