Benefits of In-Home Therapy

One-on-One Attention

Your sessions are based on your health conditions, abilities and personal goals. Working with a therapist at home means you have their undivided attention, so you get the most out of your training.

Pain Management

In-home therapy can help you cope with pain if you don’t want to use medication. Your therapist can modify exercises based on your comfort level and adjust them as you grow stronger.

Reduced Recovery Time

Your therapist will track your progress and create exercises to enhance your strength, flexibility and mobility without rushing the process. You’ll also receive assistance in managing chronic conditions to prevent physical decline and rehospitalization.

Caretaker Education

Your loved ones can work with your therapist to learn how to assist in your rehabilitation so they can assist between therapy visits.

What to Expect from Ohioans In-Home Therapy Services

We prioritize the continuum of care by collaborating with your physicians to achieve the best possible outcome. Your therapy is based on your doctor’s recommendations and an in-person consultation to review the severity of your condition before prescribing a treatment plan.

Your therapist will assess your well-being and ask you about what health goals you hope to achieve. They will create a care plan based on those answers and your medical history.

The frequency of your session is determined by your evaluation, insurance and abilities. Your Ohioans therapist will conduct follow-up assessments based on your plan and update your doctor as you progress.

What Sets Ohioans In-Home Therapy Apart?

We Get to Know You

You’re an individual before you’re a patient. Our therapists want to know about your health concerns, but we also want to learn about you as a person. We will discuss your goals and celebrate your successes with you.

Staff Expertise and Training

Work with a team of licensed therapists and assistants who specialize in the latest therapy methods. Each therapist is trained to complete evaluations and carry out your treatment based on a set schedule.

Your Opinion Matters

You control your therapy program and have the freedom to share your opinions with the assurance that they’ll be heard.

Program Flexibility

We administer therapy assessments every 60 days to monitor your progress and determine if your sessions should change. That optimizes your time as you recover and develop physical independence.
