HELPING CLIENTS MAXIMISE THEIR OWN BODY'S POTENTIAL
Closing the disconnect for better outcomes
Our team of mobile physiotherapists are focused on enabling your clients to live their best lives. Physiotherapists as a profession are experts in the structures of the human body and its movements. They are experienced in assessing, diagnosing and managing the care of our clients across various conditions (see conditions treated). At Own Body, we work with people of all ages to understand how their body’s abilities and limitations, their habits and lifestyle are holding them back from achieving their own body’s potential. Our treatment plans can assist to improve your client’s movement, strength, balance, fitness and endurance as well as help to reduce their pain.
Our treatment session may include:
- Exercises
- Advice
- prescribing aids (e.g crutches or frames)
- referring to other professions or specialists
- lifestyle advice for self-management
- pain reduction strategies
- carer training
- occupational health assessments
- injury prevention strategies
- liaising with other professionals such as referrers or care managers
Our Physiotherapists regularly undertake professional development including courses, mentoring and peer support to enhance and develop an ever-expanding skill set best suited to aid our clients in achieving their goals in the comfort of their own homes.

How can we help?
Whilst there are many benefits to having your Physiotherapy in a clinic, not everyone can get there or feels comfortable in a clinic environment. Mobile physiotherapy gives your client the benefit of convenience and comfort, but that’s only the beginning. By having us come to them, we can assess them within their own space and clearly understand how their condition or injury impacts their daily lives. This allows our Physiotherapists to optimise their treatment and support to the client’s space and lifestyle. For example, if we’re prescribing some exercises as part of their treatment, we’ll be able to incorporate features of their home, such as stairs, beds or benches, as their exercise equipment.
Mobile Physiotherapy Treatment
What to expect from our first appointment?
Our clinicians will sit down with your client to understand them and their challenges. We will ask about their current and past injuries, medical conditions, goals and personal experience that is relevant to helping or hindering them from achieving their goals. We will address their questions and concerns and focus on what is most important to them in the short and long term. In most cases, their therapist will commence treatment and leave them with some simple written advice or exercises to undertake before their next appointment. Most importantly, they will be treated as an individual, not a number!
Physiotherapy FAQs
How do I know if I need physiotherapy?
If you would like to be able to live with greater confidence or physical ability, our in-home physiotherapy program is for you! We can help you improve your balance, strength, endurance, functional capacity and recovery from injuries or surgery. Check out the conditions we treat for more information
How long are physio sessions?
Own Body physiotherapy home visits are a little different from visits to a clinic. We take the time to understand, assess, and work with you in your own environment rather than hoping our treatments and advice will “carry over” into your home. Our initial appointments are 1 hour, and subsequent appointments range from 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on your needs. These extended sessions mean our clients are empowered by their understanding of the issue, our treatment advice and what they need to do in between sessions, rather than feeling rushed.
What happens at a first physio appointment?
You will be treated as an individual, not a number! Our clinicians will sit down with you to understand you and your challenges. We will ask about your current and past injuries, medical conditions, goals and personal experience that is relevant to helping or hindering you from achieving your goals. We will address your questions and concerns and focus on what is most important to you in the first session. In most cases, your therapist will commence treatment and leave you with some simple written advice or exercises to undertake before your next appointment.
Do I need to have an injury to see a Physiotherapist?
No. While Physiotherapists do help when you are injured, they can also help to
- Improve physical independence to live at home safely
- Improve movement
- help if you are experiencing constant pins and needles
- Help if you have stiff or locking joints
- Improve your balance, flexibility, and strength
- prevent injury
How often should you see a physiotherapist?
How often you see a Physiotherapist will depend on your individual situation, needs, and goals. Our Physiotherapists will work with you to devise a plan to help you with your issue or condition and will work with you to define how many sessions you’ll need.
