If it is difficult or impossible for you to leave home after an injury or surgery to receive physical therapy, a therapist can come to your home to work with you. In-home physical therapy sessions may only be necessary for a short time until you are well enough to attend sessions at a facility. At home, your therapist can perform exercises and stretches that will progress your healing process. They can also demonstrate and teach you how to properly perform exercises on your own. Your in-home sessions may not involve ancillary modalities that are often used in a facility, such as ultrasound, but they can still be very effective.
