What Is Mobile Physiotherapy?
Mobile physiotherapy is a flexible healthcare option that allows you to access professional physiotherapy services in your own environment. Our physiotherapists conduct comprehensive assessments and deliver hands-on treatment, exercise programs, and mobility support – all without the need to travel to a clinic.
Our Adelaide-based mobile team supports people who:
Have difficulty travelling due to mobility or transport challenges
Live in aged care or supported accommodation
Are recovering from hospital or injury
Prefer therapy in the comfort and privacy of their home
Need functional assessment or rehabilitation in their everyday environment
We believe physiotherapy should be accessible, convenient, and responsive to your lifestyle – and that’s exactly what our mobile service provides.
