In-home physical therapy for knee and hip pain
Build strength and confidence for stairs, chairs, walking and getting in and out of the car, practiced right where you need them.
How in-home physical therapy can help
Knee and hip pain often shows up during the most ordinary moments: standing up from a low chair, climbing the stairs to bed, stepping off a curb.
Working at home means your therapist can train those exact moments with you, on your stairs and your furniture, rather than on clinic equipment you'll never use again.

Who this is for: People with knee or hip pain from arthritis, overuse, weakness or an old injury, and anyone finding stairs or walking harder than before.
Every plan is based on an individual evaluation by a licensed physical therapist. Results vary from person to person, and physical therapy isn't right for every condition.
Questions about knee & hip pain
Will exercise make my knee arthritis worse?
For many people with knee osteoarthritis, the right kind of exercise is part of managing symptoms. Your therapist will choose movements and loads that suit your joints.
Can you help me prepare for a joint replacement?
Yes. Some people work with a physical therapist before surgery to build strength and practice the movements they'll need afterward. Talk to your surgeon about whether this suits you.
