How home physiotherapy can help
- Assessing the swelling and how it affects daily life
- Exercises that support movement
- Skin care and self-care routines
- Guidance on compression, where your care team has advised it
Your physiotherapist decides what is right for you after assessing you.
What a home visit involves
Each visit is 60 minutes at home, starting on the hour. At the first visit, your physiotherapist asks about your health and goals, sees how you move, and agrees a plan with you. Initial and follow-up visits cost the same.
Questions
Is every physiotherapist trained in lymphoedema care?
No. Oreka matches the need to a suitable physiotherapist, and tells you if none is available for your area and time.
Can visits fit around ongoing cancer treatment?
Tell Oreka about the treatment on the call. Your physiotherapist plans around your care team’s advice.
