You’re dealing with pain that limits what you can do. Maybe it’s getting harder to walk without feeling unsteady, or you’re recovering from surgery and the thought of driving to appointments sounds exhausting. Transportation shouldn’t be the barrier between you and feeling like yourself again.
In-home physical therapy means a licensed therapist comes to you. No waiting rooms, no commute, no rushing through your session because the next patient is waiting. You get one-on-one attention in the place where you actually live—where the stairs, the bathroom, the kitchen all matter.
Most of our patients in Bohemia are managing recovery from falls, surgery, or stroke. Others are dealing with chronic joint pain or balance issues that make them nervous about going out. What they have in common is this: they want to stay in their own home, keep their independence, and not feel like a number in a crowded clinic.
Physical therapy at home gives you time to ask questions, work at your own pace, and practice the movements that matter most to your daily routine. And if you’re on Medicare, most services are covered.
We’ve been providing in-home care across Long Island for over a decade. Our therapists are licensed, experienced, and trained specifically in home-based rehabilitation—which is different from clinic-based care.
Bohemia residents know how spread out things can be on the Island. Getting to appointments on Veterans Memorial Highway during rush hour, finding parking, waiting in a lobby—it all adds up when you’re already dealing with pain or mobility issues. We skip that entire hassle.
Every therapist on our team is credentialed and insured. We accept Medicare and most commercial insurance plans. And because we’ve been doing this since 2010, we’ve built a reputation locally for showing up on time, communicating clearly, and actually listening to what you need.
First, we verify your insurance and schedule a time that works for you. A licensed physical therapist comes to your home and does a full assessment—how you move, where it hurts, what’s limiting you, and what your goals are.
From there, we build a treatment plan. That might include gait training if you’re unsteady on your feet, therapeutic exercise to rebuild strength, balance training to prevent falls, or neuromuscular re-education after a stroke. Everything is personalized based on what your body needs and what you’re trying to get back to doing.
Sessions typically happen one to three times per week, depending on your condition and your doctor’s orders. Your therapist will also give you exercises to do between visits—simple stuff you can manage on your own to keep progressing.
As you improve, the plan adjusts. Some people need a few weeks of care after surgery. Others benefit from ongoing support to manage chronic conditions or prevent another fall. Either way, you’re not locked into anything. The goal is to get you functional, confident, and independent again.

We specialize in the conditions that most commonly affect older adults and people recovering from injury or surgery. That includes fall prevention and balance training—critical for Bohemia residents, since more than one-third of adults over 65 fall each year, and many of those falls lead to serious injury or hospitalization.
Stroke rehabilitation and neurological rehabilitation are also core services. If you or a loved one is recovering from a stroke, early intervention with a physical therapist can make a massive difference in regaining movement, coordination, and independence. We also work with patients managing Parkinson’s, MS, and other neurological conditions.
Post-surgery rehabilitation is another big part of what we do—whether it’s a knee replacement, hip surgery, or spinal procedure. Recovery at home tends to be more comfortable and less stressful than going back and forth to a clinic, especially in those first few weeks when movement is still difficult.
Joint pain treatment, therapeutic exercise, resistance and strength training, occupational therapy—we cover the full spectrum of what you’d get in a traditional outpatient setting, just delivered where you’re most comfortable. And because we’re in your home, we can also assess things like lighting, rugs, furniture placement, and other fall risks that a clinic therapist would never see.
Yes. Medicare Part B covers outpatient physical therapy when it’s medically necessary and ordered by your doctor. That includes therapy delivered in your home.
You’ll typically be responsible for 20% of the Medicare-approved amount after you’ve met your deductible. If you have a Medicare Supplement plan or Medicare Advantage, your out-of-pocket cost may be lower or even zero depending on your specific coverage.
We handle the billing and work directly with Medicare, so you’re not stuck figuring it out on your own. During your first call, we’ll verify your coverage and let you know exactly what to expect before your first session. Most of our Bohemia patients are on Medicare, so this is something we deal with every day.
The biggest difference is convenience and personalization. You don’t have to arrange transportation, sit in a waiting room, or worry about infection risk. Your therapist comes to you, works with you one-on-one, and tailors everything to your actual living environment.
That last part matters more than people realize. If you’re working on balance or gait training, your therapist can watch you navigate your own stairs, bathroom, and hallways—the exact spaces where you’re most likely to struggle or fall. They can also spot hazards in your home and suggest modifications that a clinic-based therapist would never see.
Sessions also tend to be longer and less rushed. There’s no pressure to wrap up quickly because another patient is waiting. You get the time and attention you need to ask questions, move at your own pace, and actually understand what you’re supposed to be doing between visits.
We treat a wide range of conditions, but the most common are recovery from falls, post-surgical rehabilitation, stroke recovery, chronic joint pain, and balance or mobility issues. Many of our Bohemia patients are managing arthritis, recovering from hip or knee replacement, or dealing with lingering weakness after a hospital stay.
Fall prevention is huge on Long Island. If you’ve fallen once, your risk of falling again is much higher—and physical therapy can reduce that risk by 25% or more through targeted balance training, strength work, and gait training.
We also work with people managing neurological conditions like Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, or neuropathy. And if you’ve had a stroke, early physical therapy is one of the most effective ways to regain function and independence. The key is starting as soon as your doctor clears you, and doing it consistently.
It depends on your condition, but most people notice improvement within two to four weeks if they’re consistent with their sessions and home exercises. Some changes happen faster—like reduced pain or better confidence walking—while others, like strength and endurance, take a bit longer.
Post-surgical patients often see the quickest progress because they’re starting from a specific event and working toward clear milestones. Chronic conditions like arthritis or balance issues may require ongoing care to maintain function and prevent decline.
Your therapist will set realistic goals with you during the first visit and track your progress at every session. If something isn’t working, we’ll adjust the plan. The goal isn’t to keep you in therapy forever—it’s to get you functional and independent again as efficiently as possible.
Yes. Medicare and most insurance plans require a physician’s order before starting physical therapy. That’s true whether you’re going to a clinic or receiving care at home.
If you don’t already have a referral, we can help coordinate with your doctor’s office to get one. It’s usually a quick process—your doctor just needs to document that physical therapy is medically necessary based on your condition or recent surgery.
Once we have the referral and verify your insurance, we can typically schedule your first session within a few days. If you’re being discharged from a hospital or rehab facility, the referral often comes as part of your discharge paperwork, which makes things even faster.
Your first session is mostly an evaluation. The therapist will ask about your medical history, current symptoms, medications, and what you’re hoping to accomplish. Then they’ll assess your strength, range of motion, balance, and how you move around your home.
They’ll also look at your environment—things like stairs, bathroom setup, furniture placement, lighting, and any tripping hazards. This helps them understand what you’re dealing with day-to-day and build a treatment plan that actually fits your life.
At the end of the visit, they’ll explain what they found, what the plan is, and how often they recommend coming back. They’ll usually give you one or two exercises to start with—nothing overwhelming, just enough to begin making progress. The whole visit typically takes 45 minutes to an hour, and you can ask as many questions as you need.
