As people age, they face a higher risk of movement difficulties, balance problems, and age-related conditions. Geriatric Physical Therapy plays an important role in promoting, preventing, and treating health issues in seniors — helping them stay active, independent, and enjoy a better quality of life.
Examples of Conditions We Treat
- Muscle, tendon, and joint pain
- Degenerative joint conditions, such as knee osteoarthritis, spinal degeneration, herniated discs, frozen shoulder
- Post-surgical rehabilitation (e.g., knee or hip replacement surgery)
- Prevention of physical deterioration
- Fall prevention
- Support for daily activities and overall wellness
