Getting a recovering patient into a car and across Joka, Kolkata traffic to a clinic undoes much of the session's benefit and is the main reason home programmes get abandoned. A physiotherapist at home also sees the actual stairs, bathroom and bed the patient has to manage, and can adapt the plan to them.
Sessions are booked per visit, usually two to five times a week for a defined block, then tapered. Occupational therapy and speech therapy are available from some of the same providers, which matters after a stroke when all three are needed together.

Physiotherapy at Home in Joka: common questions
How much does a physiotherapy session at home cost in Joka, Kolkata?
Home physiotherapy is priced per session and varies with the therapist's specialisation and travel distance. Each provider lists its per-session rate.
How many sessions will we need?
A physiotherapist sets this after the first assessment. A straightforward post-operative knee may need two to three sessions a week for four to six weeks; neurological rehabilitation after a stroke usually runs for months with the frequency tapering as the patient improves.
Do we need equipment at home?
Most home programmes use body weight, a firm bed and a chair. Where a walker, parallel bars or a CPM machine is needed, the therapist will say so, and several providers on Near Health rent equipment.
Is home physiotherapy as effective as a clinic?
For most geriatric, post-surgical and neurological cases the deciding factor is whether the patient actually completes the programme, and attendance at home is far better. Clinics have the advantage where heavy gym equipment or hydrotherapy is genuinely required.
