As you try to recover from an injury or ailment, it can be hard to fit in all of your recommended physical therapy visits. Instead of reducing your physical therapy sessions and lengthening your recovery time, consider virtual in-home physical therapy.
Twin Boro Physical Therapy in New Jersey has been providing patients with the highest quality rehabilitation services since 1980 and is the state’s largest private physical therapy practice. Our team of physical therapists is comprised of compassionate, dedicated professionals who are committed to their patients.
We provide care for the full range of rehabilitation services. Our outstanding staff includes highly qualified physical therapists, occupational therapists, and certified hand therapists. Many staff members have more than 25 years of experience in physical therapy.
What is Virtual Physical Therapy?
“Virtual” physical therapy, also called “telehealth” or “telemedicine” physical therapy, is the use of electronic communication to provide services remotely over a technology platform like a smartphone, tablet or computer that is equipped with a camera and microphone. We use a secure and confidential (HIPAA compliant) telehealth platform that is very user-friendly.
Virtual PT should appeal to any patient who is interested in more freedom with their physical therapy care plan. Expect the same things you would from in-person PT, including a treatment plan and exercise program to keep up between sessions.
A Twin Boro physical therapist will work one-on-one with you to assess your condition and provide real-time feedback. They can also provide modifications and recommendations on current exercises, and help you continue your progress without disruption or relapse.

What You Need to Get Started
Using technology allows you to communicate with your virtual physical therapist from anywhere. Consequently, you can start or continue physical therapy visits even if you don’t have a reliable form of transportation several times per week, have time constraints, or have sustained a new injury and need quick access to advice.
Here are the things you will need:
- A smartphone, tablet, laptop or computer that is equipped with a camera and microphone
- Reliable internet connection
- Clothing that’s comfortable for exercise and stretching
- Any exercise equipment prescribed by your therapist
Whether you visit us in one of our facilities, schedule a telehealth appointment, or are blending both types of services, your appointment will include an evaluation, therapeutic exercise and patient education with one of our highly experienced physical therapists.
