About Barry
Barry is the largest town in the Vale of Glamorgan, on the Bristol Channel coast just south of Cardiff, with a sizeable older population across Cadoxton, Barry Island, Merthyr Dyfan and the surrounding villages. Many residents are recovering from joint replacement surgery, a fall or a stroke, or managing long-term conditions such as arthritis and Parkinson's — all of which respond well to physiotherapy delivered at home.
Claire is an HCPC registered physiotherapist with over 20 years' experience across community, older-adults and disability rehabilitation. She provides home visits throughout Barry, adapting each plan to your home, your goals and your pace.

Initial assessments typically last 45–60 minutes. This gives us time to understand your needs, assess your movement, and create a tailored plan.
What times are available?
We offer appointments Monday to Saturday, 8am–7pm. We'll work with you to find a time that suits your routine.

No referral needed. You can book directly with us for private physiotherapy.

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