- Assess and treat mobility issues in your real-world environment.
- Provide manual therapy and hands-on treatment to alleviate pain.

★★★★★
“My brother was diagnosed with Parkinsons 12 years ago… After a few visits the physio had established a great rapport with Christian. Each visit was tailored to his ability on the day. She devised programs that suited my brother, made them enjoyable and gave him a sense of accomplishment.”
“She supported me and the other carers with suggestions of exercise programs… When other professional support was needed… she was there to give that advice. This holistic approach to physiotherapy made such a difference. A big heartfelt thank you to Medella and the team.”

Common questions
Do you cover Highcliffe and Mudeford?
Yes, our physiotherapists and occupational therapists provide home visits throughout Christchurch and all its surrounding communities, including Highcliffe, Mudeford, Burton, and Somerford.
Can you help with rehabilitation after a stay at Christchurch Hospital?
Absolutely. We frequently help clients transition home after a stay in a community hospital like Christchurch Hospital. Our therapists focus on rebuilding strength and confidence needed for daily life.
What happens during the first home visit?
The first visit is a comprehensive initial assessment. Our therapist will discuss your goals, assess your mobility and home environment, and design a bespoke exercise programme tailored to your needs.
Do I need a GP referral to book?
No, you do not need a referral from your GP. You can book an appointment with us directly. However, if you have private health insurance, we recommend checking with your provider first, as they may require a referral to authorise your claim.
How quickly can you see me?
We aim to offer appointments promptly, often within a few days of your enquiry. This allows us to start your rehabilitation as soon as possible, which is especially important if you have recently been discharged from hospital or are in pain.
Do you visit patients in care homes?
Yes, we regularly visit care homes across Christchurch and Highcliffe. We can work alongside the care home staff to ensure you or your loved one receives dedicated one-to-one therapy to improve mobility and safety.
