"My brother was diagnosed with Parkinsons 12 years ago, and as the condition progressed, he was not able to exercise and we knew he needed additional support. We found Medella on the internet and were introduced to our physiotherapist. The Parkinsons condition affects people in different ways. After a few visits she had established a great rapport with Christian. Each visit was tailored to his ability on the day. She devised programs that suited my brother, made them enjoyable and gave him a sense of accomplishment. He looked forward to the sessions and significant progress was made both in movement and self confidence. She supported me and the other carers with suggestions of exercise programs and activities to use throughout the week. She was a very good communicator and would update me about that week's session or of any issues that might have arisen. I found this invaluable. When other professional support was needed to improve the care program for my brother, she was there to give that advice or point us in the right direction. This holistic approach to physiotherapy made such a difference. I wish we had found you sooner. A big heartfelt thank you to Medella and the team."

How It Works
Getting started with home physiotherapy or occupational therapy in Christchurch is simple.
Call Us

We Match You
We pair you with the right therapist for your needs — someone local to Christchurch with the right expertise for your condition.
Home Visit
Your therapist visits you at home — usually within a few days. No travel stress, no waiting rooms, just expert care in your own space.
Why Choose Home Visits in Christchurch?
Christchurch sits between Bournemouth and the New Forest, with a large population of older adults who value their independence. While the town has excellent local amenities, getting to clinic appointments isn't always practical — especially after surgery, a hospital stay, or when mobility is limited. Our home visit service brings expert rehabilitation directly to your door.
Treatment in Your Environment
We assess and treat you in your own home — practising on your stairs, getting in and out of your chair, and using your bathroom. This makes therapy immediately relevant.
No Waiting Lists
As a private practice, we don't have NHS-style waiting times. Most Christchurch patients are seen within days of their first call — essential when you've just left hospital.
Family Can Be Involved
Home visits mean family members or carers can easily join sessions, learn exercises, and understand how to support recovery between appointments.
