Stroke Rehabilitation in Newcastle
Home-based stroke rehabilitation physiotherapy in Newcastle, helping people rebuild movement, strength and independence in the comfort of their own home.
Fletcher Physiotherapy provides home visit stroke rehabilitation across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Central Coast. Recovery from a stroke continues long after hospital, and much of the progress happens once you are back home.
Stroke can affect movement, strength, balance, coordination and confidence, and every person's recovery is different. We design an individualised program around your goals and work patiently alongside you and your family.
Led by an APA Titled Pain Physiotherapist experienced in neurological and complex rehabilitation, we help you regain as much function and independence as possible.
Rehabilitation after a stroke
Stroke rehabilitation helps you relearn movement and skills affected by the stroke, and build the strength and confidence to return to daily life. Consistent, targeted physiotherapy is central to making the most of the brain's ability to adapt.
Because we come to you, your rehabilitation is grounded in your real environment and everyday goals, and consistent practice is far easier to maintain.

Funding your rehabilitation
Stroke rehabilitation is often funded through the NDIS or a Home Care Package, as well as privately. We work with participants and providers and supply the documentation and reports needed to support your plan.
We also communicate closely with your GP, hospital team and support coordinators for a coordinated recovery.
Why home-based stroke rehab works
Getting to a clinic after a stroke can be difficult, and consistency is one of the biggest factors in recovery. Home visit physiotherapy removes the barrier of travel, supports regular practice, and involves the people around you.
