Hands-on virtual physiotherapy via live video—expert care at home, delivered by Physiocare’s registered clinicians.
Physiocare's Experience in Action
Understanding Telerehabilitation
Telerehabilitation delivers physiotherapy through video conferencing and mobile tools, enabling remote assessment, exercise guidance, and education. Systematic reviews show it achieves comparable function, pain relief, and quality of life outcomes to in-person therapy across musculoskeletal, neurological, and post‑operative populations. Patient satisfaction and adherence are equally high, and it reduces access barriers, making it a viable standard of care.
How does Telerehabilitation work?
Through secure live video sessions, our therapists conduct remote assessments—observing movement, joint function, and home environment. We guide therapeutic exercises, posture correction, and self‑mobilization, adjusting in real time. In burn recovery and knee arthroplasty, telerehab showed non‑inferior outcomes to in-clinic rehab. Remote gait and motor retraining for stroke or Parkinson’s patients achieved similar mobility gains to face‑to‑face care.
Benefits of Telerehabilitation
- Convenient access for home-bound clients, eliminating travel barriers
- Clinical outcomes match in-person care for pain, function, and mobility
- High satisfaction and compliance rates among diverse client groups.
- Safe during isolation or mobility restrictions, especially in pandemics.
Cost-effective, reducing transportation time and caregiver burden
