In-Home Physical Therapy, Recovery & Rehabilitation

In-home physical therapy after a stroke helps survivors relearn movement, improve safety, and regain independence in the exact environment where they live every day. With Anthony Daffner-Milos and A.D.M. Doctor of Physical Therapy, LLC, that care is delivered as a high-level, one-on-one concierge service tailored to complex neurologic needs like stroke.

Why in-home PT matters after stroke?

Anthony Daffner-Milos delivers care in your home so that we can focus on function in your environment and not simulate it off-site. We will practice whatever is important to you and what is related to your goals. It may be getting in/out of your favorite chair, your bed, your bathroom, your kitchen, your lanai, your dock, your boat, your car; any task or location that is important to you or recommendations will be made to modify until you are ready for those tasks. Being treated at home reduces travel burden, fall risk during transportation, and sensory overload, which is especially important for people with fatigue, cognitive changes, or anxiety after a stroke.

Benefits of in-home vs clinic care

At home, the therapist can directly assess and modify real-world hazards like loose rugs, poor lighting, or optimize the set-up of your environment, then educate the client/patient and family on how to navigate them safely. This context-specific approach often improves carryover and reduces the risk of rehospitalization due to falls or complications. In-home care allows longer, uninterrupted one-on-one sessions and easier involvement of caregivers, which supports consistent practice and better adherence to home exercise prescriptions and recommendations to home modification.
