Home Care

Home Care

Enable Healthcare’s exists to keep you active and independent for longer. Allowing you to stay in the comfort of your own home and reducing the need for you to transition to residential aged care.

Not only does it allow you to have more freedom and independence but research shows that you live a happier, higher quality of life in your own home.

The number one cause of transition from your own home into aged care is declining physical function, mainly decreased balance and increased falls. Along with the lack strength and endurance to perform everyday tasks.

To overcome these issues and keep you where you want to be, Enable Healthcare offers the following services:

  • Physiotherapy

  • Exercise Physiology

Physiotherapy: Our Homecare based physiotherapy services combine multiple assessment and treatment types. In order to discover where you are on your journey to achieving your goals, work out what needs to be addressed in order to enable you to achieve your goals. We then prioritise this problem list and formulate a treatment plan that incorporates your likes, hobbies and passions into the treatment solution in consultation with you.

Once this has been achieved we embark on your journey using a combination of treatment types to best enable success.

These include:

Exercise based rehabilitation: This includes individually tailored exercises and activities such as strength training, endurance training, play therapy and hydrotherapy. That are fun, exciting, cutting edge and most importantly effective. Improving strength, endurance, range of motion, balance, coordination, agility, posture and overall fitness ultimately increases your ability perform the tasks and activities important to you. Enabling your access and participation in the life you want to live.

Hands on therapies: Massage, mobilisation, dry needling, cupping, and facilitated stretching to improve range of motion, muscle activation, reduce spasticity and tightness, manage pain and enable more efficient and effective use of your body.

Exercise Physiology: Exercise physiology encompasses the same exercise based rehabilitation strategies as those mentioned above.

Your clinician in this field is an exercise specialist. Trained specifically in the best evidence based rehabilitation strategies to maintain and improve you function and ability.

So you can rest assured that you are in the most capable hands to enable the achievement of your functional goals.

These treatment options include:

Strength training

Balance and fall prevention

Flexibility

Gross and Fine motor skills
