Professional physiotherapy, in the comfort of your own home.

At Summit Physio, we know that getting to a clinic is not always easy. For many people, it is simply more practical to have a physiotherapist come to you.

WE COME TO YOU

Our in Home Services.

Coming to you in your own home means we can see first-hand the challenges you face day to day. That helps us create treatment plans that are realistic, practical, and focused on what matters most to you.

We work with clients across Christchurch and Canterbury, supporting people recovering from injury, managing long-term conditions, requiring wheelchair and seating assessments, or wanting to feel safer and more independent at home.
