Welcome to Freehab.

Working in partnership with the Active Tameside Sport & Physical Activity Network to give you free access to online rehabilitation and physiotherapy for your injuries, aches and pains.

What injuries do you deal with?

 

We provide advice and rehab for musculoskeletal injuries and conditions. They are injuries, aches and pains of the muscles, bones, joints, ligaments, spine and nerves. Some common examples are:

  • Lower back pain and sciatica

  • Neck and shoulder pain

  • Joint pain and arthritis

  • Sprains, strains and muscle pulls

  • Sports injuries

  • Tendonitis

  • Long term pain

  • Postoperative advice and rehab

We always conduct an in-depth assessment before providing advice and if we’re not the right people to help you, we’ll help you by signposting you to the best people to help with your problem.

Who is it for?

 

Freehab is for anybody who needs help. You don’t need a referral from your GP or other healthcare professional and it doesn’t matter if you’ve not seen anybody before for your problem, you can simply book yourself in and we’ll help to get you moving in the right direction.

How does it work?

 

Freehab is completely online so there’s no need to travel and leave the comfort of your own home. You don’t need to be tech-savvy either; we’ve made the process as easy as possible and as long as you have a computer or smartphone, you’ll be able to access our service.

Consultation.

Attend your appointment with one of our clinicians who’ll go through a detailed assessment of your injury/condition and offer you their advice and recommendations.

Rehab Plan.

We will send you a personalised rehab plan that you can access via a mobile app or website. It will have video instructions for all of the recommended exercises and advice and you’ll be able to track your progress with pain and wellness scores.

Ongoing support.

You can attend up to two follow up appointments with your clinician to keep you on track with your programme, review your progress and change your plan as needed.

Why is it free?

 

Freehab is a social enterprise, meaning we exist primerly to deliver our service rather than making a profit. Any money we do receive is reinvested to ensure that we can help more people.

Instead of having fees, we provide the service for free but allow people to make a voluntary contribution for the appointment if they want to. People who choose to contribute can choose the amount and doesn’t influence your access to our service in any way.

We also get funding through partners, sponsors, community funds and grants.
