About Oakham

Oakham is the historic county town of Rutland, England's smallest county, with a largely rural, older population across Barleythorpe, Langham, Egleton and the surrounding villages. Many residents are recovering from a stroke, managing Parkinson's, MS or other neurological conditions, or rebuilding confidence after a fall — our physiotherapist's specialist areas.

Twinkle is a specialist physiotherapist with a Master's in geriatric and community rehabilitation, and NHS experience across neurological, older-adult and musculoskeletal care. Twinkle provides home visits across Oakham and the wider area, tailoring each programme to your condition, mobility goals and home environment.

Frequently asked questions

Do you charge a travel fee for Oakham?

Travel fees depend on your exact location. We'll confirm any additional costs during your free phone enquiry. Most areas in Oakham are covered within our standard service area.

How long is a first visit?

Initial assessments typically last up to 60 minutes. This gives us time to understand your needs, assess your movement, and create a tailored plan.

Do I need a GP referral?

No referral needed. You can book directly with Twinkle for private physiotherapy. However, if you have a GP referral or consultant letter, please have it available at your first appointment.

How do I book?

Twinkle covers Oakham and surrounding Rutland villages including Barleythorpe, Langham, Egleton, Braunston and Cottesmore. Most local postcodes are within the standard service area.

Can you start rehab after I'm discharged from hospital?

Yes. Twinkle regularly picks up rehabilitation at home after a hospital stay — for example following surgery, a fall or a stroke — often when NHS community input has ended or you'd like to progress faster. Have any discharge summary or consultant letter ready for your first visit.
