Geriatric Therapy

As we age our balance will decline, and without maintaining a functional level of strength, flexibility, and balance you can become prone to an increased risk of falls. Every year, more than one in three people aged 65 years or older fall, and the risk increases with age. A simple fall can cause a serious fracture of the hip, pelvis, spine, arm, hand, or ankle, which can lead to hospital stays, disability, and loss of independence.

Elderly parents, friends, and neighbors can benefit from a physical therapy program designed to improve their function and ability to remain active.
