About Cardiff
Cardiff is the capital of Wales and its largest city, home to a growing older population across established suburbs such as Cyncoed, Lisvane, Llanishen, Rhiwbina and Whitchurch, alongside busy inner districts like Roath, Cathays, Canton and Grangetown. Many residents are recovering from joint replacement surgery, stroke or a fall, or managing long-term conditions such as Parkinson's and arthritis — 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 the city, adapting each plan to your home, your goals and your pace — so there's no need to travel to a clinic while you're recovering.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge a travel fee for Cardiff?
Travel fees depend on your exact location. Claire will confirm any additional costs during your free phone enquiry, including anywhere in Cardiff and the villages around it.
How long is a first visit?
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.
Do I need a GP referral?
No referral needed. You can book directly with us for private physiotherapy. However, if you have a GP referral or consultant letter, please have it available at your first appointment.
Which parts of Cardiff do you cover?
Claire covers the whole of Cardiff, from northern suburbs such as Lisvane, Cyncoed, Rhiwbina and Whitchurch to inner districts including Roath, Cathays, Canton, Grangetown and Butetown, and eastern areas like Rumney, Llanrumney and St Mellons. Most Cardiff postcodes are within the standard service area.
Can you start rehab after I'm discharged from hospital?
Yes. Claire regularly picks up rehabilitation at home after a hospital stay — for example following a hip or knee replacement, 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.
