Telerehabilitation is a modern and effective way to treat our physiotherapy patients from the comfort and safety of their home. In light of COVID-19, this service is crucial in getting many patients the help that they need without the risk of getting or spreading the virus. Over the years many research articles have been published on the effectiveness of Telerehabilitation on conditions related to physical impairments related to loss of mobility, balance and general function.
All you need is a safe and quiet place in your house and a laptop or tablet.
The Telerehabilitation session will be very similar to how we operate in our clinic, except everything takes place live using a video chat platform.
Your session starts with the physiotherapist taking their time to understand your current condition through conversation. Afterwards, the therapist will further assess your condition by asking you to perform certain tasks so that your mobility, balance, flexibility, posture, gait and general function can be assessed (always keeping your safety in mind).
Once your assessment is complete, your therapist will create a plan of action on how to improve your condition through live video guidance as well as supervised home exercises using the video chat platform. All the home exercises and physiotherapy recommendations discussed during your session can always be emailed to you after the session.
All receipts will be emailed to you directly (it is the patient’s responsibility to verify with their insurance company if Physiotherapy Telerehabilitation is covered under their plan).
We care deeply for the well-being. Please be assured that we will continue to be there for you!
