The home assessment

90 minutes in your home.

By the end of it you will have a clear understanding of the most likely reasons for your pain, and what to do next. You leave with a programme to run yourself, and a physiotherapist responsible for it.

In the visit

What actually happens

We talk first.

How it started, what makes it worse, what it has stopped you doing. This part matters more than most people expect, and we do not rush it.

We examine you.

How you bend, stand, walk and get up. Strength and movement where it counts, and specific tests depending on what we are looking for.

We check the basics.

Blood pressure and a few general health questions. If we are going to ask your body to work harder, we need to know that is safe first.

We write down where you are starting from.

How far you can walk. How long you can sit. What you cannot do yet. So that in a month you are not relying on memory to judge whether things have improved.

We explain what we found.

Out loud, in plain words, with time for your questions. If you cannot explain it back to someone else afterwards, we have not done this part properly.

You leave knowing your next step.

Something to start that day, and a clear reason why.

We agree what happens next.

Including what that looks like day to day: a plan you can see on Fesera, and check-ins to adjust it. Or we agree that nothing further is needed. Both are real outcomes.

How ongoing care works

The home programme is the treatment. The visit is where the hands-on work and the clinical decisions happen; the recovery happens in the weeks in between, and that part is yours to run. Fesera carries it: what you have done, how it felt, what has changed. Your physiotherapist can see all of it before you ever speak.

So follow-ups do not have to mean another home visit every time. Some of them happen by video, working from what we are already seeing of your progress. Home visits still happen when we need to actually put hands on you or re-check something properly. Just not every time.

See our approach for what happens between the visits, and who decides what.

The outcome

What you will know by the end

The most likely reasons for your pain, in words you understand
Whether it can be improved, and roughly how long that takes
What to start doing today
Whether you need to see a doctor instead

Sometimes there is more than one thing going on, and sometimes pain does not fit neatly into a category. Where that is the case we will say so rather than invent a tidy answer.

What we bring, what you need

We bring everything for the assessment and the first exercises.

You need loose clothes, a bit of clear floor space, and somewhere to lie down. A bed is fine.

Bring in anyone you want. A spouse, an adult child, whoever helps you day to day. If someone else will be reminding you about your exercises, they should hear this from us directly rather than second hand.

Cost

What it costs

₦30,000 for the 90 minute assessment

It stands on its own. You are not committing to anything by booking it.

If it turns out you need ongoing care, that runs in four week blocks: a mix of home visits and video check-ins, built around what you actually need rather than a fixed schedule. You decide at the end of the assessment, once you know what you are actually dealing with, and you are never committing to more than four weeks at a time.

If you want the numbers before you book, ask us on WhatsApp and we will give you a straight answer.

Being straight with you

What we will not do

We will not waste your time with treatments that are not helping.

There is a set of machine based treatments that many clinics still lead with for long lasting back pain. The World Health Organization advises against them, because the evidence shows they do not improve long-term outcomes.

We will not promise you a cure.

The best treatments we have produce real and lasting improvement in pain and in what you can do. They do not make it vanish completely. Anyone telling you otherwise is selling something.

We will not keep seeing you if it is not working.

We check properly at four weeks against the numbers written down on day one. If they have not moved, we change the approach, or we tell you honestly that you need something else.

Questions people ask before booking

Is it worth it if I have already seen a physiotherapist?

Often yes, particularly if you were treated with machines rather than movement, or if nobody ever explained what was actually wrong.

My mother cannot really get out of the house. Is that a problem?

No. That is one of the main reasons we work this way.

How soon can you come?

Depends on the week and where you are. Ask us on WhatsApp and we will tell you honestly.

What if I book and then you say I need a doctor?

Then we will have saved you months. If that is already clear from your answers, we will tell you before you pay anything.
