About this service
Stroke recovery doesn’t end at the hospital door. The most important gains are usually made in the weeks and months after discharge — in your own home, on your own stairs, with a physiotherapist who understands what you’re trying to get back to.
Jay has worked across acute stroke, the Leicester Hyper-Acute Stroke Unit pathway and Early Supported Discharge (ESD) services, helping people regain movement, balance, walking, hand function and confidence after ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke.

Shepshed FAQs
How soon after a stroke can I start home physio?
Often as soon as you’re home and medically stable. Jay regularly picks up patients straight after Early Supported Discharge ends, or alongside NHS community input where private physio adds extra capacity.
Can you work alongside the NHS Early Supported Discharge team?
Yes — Jay has worked inside ESD teams himself and is happy to coordinate with NHS therapists, your GP and consultant rehabilitation medicine teams to avoid duplication.
What if my stroke was years ago?
Late-stage gains are absolutely possible. A focused block of home physio can target a specific goal — getting outdoors, climbing stairs, regaining hand use — with measurable improvement.
Do you travel to Shepshed and surrounding villages?
Yes — Jay covers all of Shepshed including Belton, Hathern, Long Whatton, and the surrounding LE12 postcodes. Travel fees only apply for the most outlying villages and are confirmed on your free phone call.
My relative has just been discharged in Shepshed. Can you start straight away?
Hospital-to-home transitions are core to Jay’s NHS background. Where capacity allows, a same-week visit in Shepshed is usually possible. Get in touch directly to confirm.
