Physical therapy at home in the San Gabriel Valley
A physical therapist works on strength, balance, and safe walking using your own stairs, hallways, and bathroom. Every visit follows the plan of care your physician signs, so you practice where you actually live.
What the physical therapist does in your home
A physical therapist builds a program around your real rooms and the way you move through them.
- Assesses your strength, balance, and walking and sets goals for getting around safely.
- Leads exercises to rebuild strength and endurance after surgery, illness, or a long time in bed.
- Works on balance and steadiness to lower the chance of a fall.
- Practices safe walking and transfers using your own stairs, hallways, and bathroom.
- Teaches the safe use of a cane, walker, or other mobility device.
- Gives you and your family a home exercise program to continue between visits.
Who this helps
Physical therapy is for patients working back toward moving safely on their own.
After a fall
You have become unsteady or afraid of falling again, and you need to rebuild balance and confidence.
After surgery
A joint replacement or other surgery left you weak, and you need guided exercise to recover strength and motion.
After a long illness
Time in the hospital or in bed left you deconditioned, and walking across the house now takes effort.
