Quick answer
Conditions treated by home physiotherapy in Egypt, session structure, equipment used, and what to expect from the first visit.

Frequently asked questions
Which conditions can home physiotherapy treat?
Post-stroke rehab, joint replacement recovery (knee/hip), spinal cord injuries, frozen shoulder, lower back pain, sports injuries, pediatric developmental delays, and post-COVID respiratory rehabilitation.
What does a home physiotherapy session in Cairo include?
A typical 45–60 minute session includes assessment, manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, modalities (ultrasound, TENS, electrical stimulation), gait training, and a home exercise plan you can repeat between visits.
Does the therapist bring equipment?
Yes. Hospitalia therapists carry portable TENS/EMS units, resistance bands, balance tools, gait belts, and ultrasound therapy devices. For long-term rehab we can also rent larger equipment to your home.
How many sessions will I need?
Most musculoskeletal cases improve within 6–12 sessions. Neurological rehab (stroke, spinal injury) typically requires 3–6 months of structured weekly programs.
