"I was very happy with the physiotherapy treatments received by Katy for my ankle fracture. I noticed improvements in my walking, balance and flexibility almost immediately. Katy was punctual, friendly and encouraging, and I found the home based service to be extremely convenient. I would definitely recommend this company."

Why Choose Home Visits in Brockenhurst?
Brockenhurst sits at the heart of the New Forest, surrounded by ancient woodland and open heathland. While it's a beautiful place to live, getting to clinic appointments can mean travelling to Lymington or Southampton — not always practical after surgery, a hospital stay, or when mobility is limited. Home visits bring expert rehabilitation to your door.
Treatment in Your Environment
We assess and treat you in your own home — practising on your stairs, using your furniture, and identifying real hazards in your living space.
No Travel Required
No need to arrange lifts or navigate Forest roads in poor weather. We come to you — whether you're in the village centre, near Sway, or out towards Beaulieu.
Consistent Care
You'll typically see the same therapist each visit, building a relationship and ensuring continuity of care — unlike busy hospital services.

Occupational TherapyRoaming ponies, quiet lanes and an older village
Brockenhurst is one of the larger villages inside the National Park, but it is village life all the same — ponies, donkeys and cattle wander freely across the high street and the watersplash, and the lanes out towards Sway, Boldre and Beaulieu are narrow and unlit once the light goes. For an older resident who is unsteady after a fall or recovering from surgery, a short trip to an appointment in Lymington or Southampton is rarely the easiest first step.
The wider New Forest has one of the oldest populations in England: around three in ten residents are aged 65 or over, and the district’s median age was 51 (2021 Census) — well above the England average of roughly 40. That is a community where confidence with walking, balance and everyday tasks at home matters more than most.
So we bring the physiotherapist or occupational therapist to your door — assessing the real stairs, thresholds and garden path you use every day, at a pace that suits you, with no lift to arrange or Forest road to drive.

Coming home to Brockenhurst after hospital
Most Brockenhurst residents are admitted for surgery or serious illness to Southampton General (University Hospital Southampton), with Lymington New Forest Hospital, about five miles away, the nearest community hospital for step-down rehabilitation and outpatient care before returning home.
NHS community rehabilitation and reablement in the Forest are typically time-limited, usually to around six weeks (NICE NG74). You can read how that pathway works across the district — the trust, the council and the local hospital — on our New Forest pathway page.
When that support comes to an end, or you would simply like more time than the timetable allows, we continue at home for as long as it helps — rebuilding steadiness on your own stairs and lanes and working alongside any NHS or Hampshire County Council care already in place. Families often call us after a fall; our guide on what happens next is a good place to start.
