Geriatric Rehab

Geriatric Rehab

Geriatric Rehabilitation focuses on improving the mobility, strength, and independence of older adults. Aging brings natural changes in muscle strength, balance, coordination, and overall physical capacity. Many seniors face difficulties due to arthritis, osteoporosis, chronic pain, balance issues, weakness, or post-surgical limitations. At Physio Heal, our goal is to help elderly individuals live active, safe, and meaningful lives.

Our specialists begin with a thorough geriatric assessment to identify limitations, risk factors, and personal goals. Treatment plans include strengthening exercises, balance training, pain management techniques, gait re-education, fall-prevention programs, and functional activities to improve daily living skills. Each session is tailored to the comfort, endurance, and medical needs of the patient.

We emphasize fall prevention—a major concern among seniors—by strengthening stabilizing muscles, improving reaction time, and training safe walking techniques. For patients with chronic conditions like arthritis or Parkinson’s disease, our therapy focuses on reducing stiffness, improving joint function, and maintaining long-term mobility.

Geriatric Rehab also addresses issues such as fatigue, breathing difficulties, poor endurance, and decreased flexibility. We use gentle, progressive exercises to improve overall physical fitness without causing strain. Emotional well-being is also a major focus as many seniors experience loneliness, stress, or fear of falling again. Our therapists work closely with family members to ensure a safe home environment and provide guidelines for supportive care. With patience, compassion, and expertise, we help seniors stay active, independent, and confident in their daily lives.
