Mobile physical therapy & occupational therapy in your own home — Brandon & Sioux Falls, SD

Therapy that comes to your front door.

Two licensed services, delivered where the difficulty actually happens — your bathroom, your stairs, your kitchen. No homebound requirement, and no waiting room.

Medicare Part B, Medicaid and more. Private pay options as well.

What we bring to you

Two services. One idea:
care where you live.

Mobile physical therapy and mobile occupational therapy are offered side by side. Some people need one, some need both, and a quick phone call is usually enough to tell which.

Mobile Physical Therapy

Moving better, with less pain.

Licensed one-on-one physical therapy in your home — rebuilding strength, balance and mobility after surgery, a hospital stay, a fall, or a long stretch of pain.

  • Post-surgical and post-hospital recovery
  • Balance, falls and walking tolerance
  • Persistent pain and limited motion
Mobile Occupational Therapy

Doing more, safely, at home.

Licensed occupational therapy in your home — keeping self-care, daily routines and home safety within reach as strength, memory or vision change.

  • Dressing, bathing and home management
  • Memory loss, vision changes, Parkinson’s
  • Home modification and accessibility

Not sure which one you need? That is what the call is for.

Why it happens here

A clinic is not where
your life takes place.

You can clear a hallway in a therapy gym and still catch your foot on the rug by your own back door. Working in your home means the plan is built around the real thing — for both services.

No homebound requirement. This is outpatient therapy that travels. You can still drive, work and leave the house and remain eligible.
Your actual surfaces. Thresholds, stair rails, tub walls and floor transitions get measured and tested the way you use them, not approximated.
Your actual routine. Dressing, cooking, bathing and getting to the car are practiced in sequence, in the order your morning really runs.
Your actual equipment. The walker, the shower chair, the reacher — fitted and adjusted where they will be used, or recommended if what you have is wrong.
No drive, no waiting room. Transportation and fatigue stop being the reason a plan of care gets abandoned halfway through.
Family can be in the room. The person who helps you day to day learns the technique at the same time you do.

Mobile PT — what visits include

Six things a session
might be built around.

Therapeutic exercise & functional mobility

Progressive strength and movement work, rehearsed on the stairs, chairs and beds you actually use.

Manual therapy

Hands-on treatment of stiff, guarded or restricted tissue to restore range before it is loaded.

Dry needling

Targeted needling of trigger points to release muscle tension that is holding a pattern in place.

Balance & fall prevention

Steadiness retrained where falls happen, alongside the lighting, rugs and rails around you.

Post-surgical rehabilitation

Protocol-paced recovery after joint replacement, repair or a hospital stay, without the drive.

Pain management

Addressing what keeps provoking the pain, so relief outlasts the length of a single visit.

Start mobile PT.

Call and we will verify your benefits and schedule the evaluation in your home.

Mobile Occupational Therapy

Is mobile OT right for you?

These are the changes that quietly shrink a day — and the ones occupational therapy is built to address.

Service 2 of 2
Increased pain, fatigue, or shortness of breath
A change in strength, balance, or coordination
A recent fall, recurring falls, or a fear of falling
Less independence in self-care or home management
Neurologic conditions, such as Parkinson’s disease
Memory loss or other cognitive conditions
Age-related vision changes
Incontinence that interrupts sleep or activities
Difficulty with mobility or home accessibility

What an OT session
actually looks like.

Everyday tasks, rehearsed. Dressing, bathing, cooking and medication routines practiced in the room where you actually do them.
Hands, grip and fine motor. Buttons, jar lids, pill bottles and utensils, retrained with graded practice rather than guesswork.
Memory and attention. Cues, placement and routine matched to current ability, so independence is preserved rather than taken over.
Vision, lighting and contrast. Small changes to glare, lighting and where things live, so vision changes stop costing you tasks.
Home safety, measured. Grab bars, thresholds and walkways assessed against the way you actually move through the house.

Mobile OT — specialty certifications

Trained for the conditions
that make home harder.

LSVT BIG

An intensive, evidence-based protocol for Parkinson’s disease that retrains the amplitude of everyday movement — steps, reach, turning, getting up.

Certified Aging in Place Specialist

Formal training in home modification — the grab bars, lighting, thresholds and layout changes that let a house keep working as needs change.

Dementia Capable Care Instructor

Specialized approach to memory loss, matching tasks and cues to current ability so independence is preserved rather than taken over.

Start mobile OT.

What to expect — either service

What a first visit looks like.

No equipment to bring, nothing to prepare. The first visit is mostly listening and looking.

1

A conversation

What has gotten harder, what you have stopped doing, and what you want back. Your goals set the plan — not a template.

2

A walk-through

Balance, strength, mobility and safety are assessed room by room, including the spots where you already feel unsteady.

3

A plan you help write

Exercises, task retraining, equipment and home modifications — in writing, in plain language, with your family looped in.

Why choose us

The same standard,
whichever service you need.

Convenience without compromise

Full outpatient-level care, delivered at your kitchen table. The setting changes; the standard does not.

Specialized care

Licensed clinicians with focused training — dry needling and post-surgical rehab on the PT side, Parkinson’s, dementia and aging in place on the OT side.

One-on-one, every visit

The same clinician, your full appointment, no shared floor time. Nobody is split between three people at once.

Paying for care

Covered more often
than people expect.

Call and we will verify your benefits before anything is scheduled, so you know what a visit costs before it happens. This applies to both services.

Medicare Part B

Outpatient therapy benefits, delivered in the home setting.

Medicaid

Accepted, along with a range of additional plans.

Private pay

Straightforward self-pay options with no referral required.

Before you call

Questions people ask first.

What is the difference between the PT and the OT?

Physical therapy works on the body’s movement — strength, balance, range of motion, pain. Occupational therapy works on the tasks that movement is for — dressing, bathing, cooking, managing a home safely. Plenty of people benefit from both, and we will say so if that is the case.

Do I have to be homebound?

No. There is no homebound requirement. Traditional home health usually requires that status and ends when it does; this is outpatient therapy that simply comes to you, so you can still drive, work and leave the house.

What areas do you serve?

Brandon, Sioux Falls and the surrounding communities, including assisted living and independent living residences. If you are not sure whether you are in range, call and ask — the answer is often yes.

Do I need a doctor’s referral?

It depends on how your care is being paid for. Call and we will tell you exactly what your plan requires, and coordinate the paperwork with your physician if a referral or plan-of-care certification is needed.

Can I get both services at once?

Yes. PT and OT are often run alongside each other, each with its own goals and its own visits. Call either number and we will sort out what makes sense and how it is billed.

What should I have ready for the first visit?

A list of your medications, any equipment you already use, and a sense of which tasks or rooms give you the most trouble. Comfortable clothing and shoes you actually walk in are helpful.

Can a family member be there?

Please invite them. Spouses, adult children and caregivers are welcome at any visit, and learning the techniques alongside you makes the plan far more likely to stick.
