Home Exercise Guidance
Safe, practical exercise plans to continue your recovery at home.
Overview
Regular practice between therapy sessions is an important part of recovery for many neurological conditions.
Home exercise guidance provides a simple, safe programme tailored to your abilities, with clear instructions for you and your caregivers.
When rehabilitation may help
- Continuing progress between or after therapy sessions
- Difficulty travelling for frequent sessions
- Needing a safe routine to stay active
- Caregivers wanting to help with exercises
Having one or more of these does not by itself mean you have a particular condition. A doctor's assessment is needed to find the cause.
What sessions involve
- A review of your current abilities and your home situation.
- A demonstration of exercises you can do safely.
- Written or illustrated instructions to follow.
- Follow-up to update the programme.
Who may benefit
- People receiving rehabilitation who want to keep practising at home
- Caregivers supporting exercises at home
How to prepare
It helps to bring:
- Comfortable clothing and footwear
- Notes about your home, such as stairs, space and handrails, that may affect which exercises are safe
- Previous medical reports, prescriptions and hospital discharge summaries
- MRI or CT scan films and reports, if you have them
- A list of all the medicines you take, with their doses
- A short note of your symptoms: when they started, how often they happen and what makes them better or worse
What happens next
- Your home programme is updated as you progress.
- Contact the clinic if an exercise causes pain or difficulty.
Recommendations depend on the clinician's assessment of your individual situation. This website cannot diagnose your condition or guarantee a particular result.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I do my home exercises?
Follow the frequency advised in your programme. Regular, consistent practice is usually more helpful than occasional long sessions.
What if an exercise causes pain or dizziness?
Stop the exercise and contact the clinic for advice. Seek urgent medical help for any emergency symptoms.
