There are far too many conditions that impact falling & balance to list. For each unique patient we tailor our programs to their individual conditions & living environment. Many of the conditions we treat (including but not limited to) are detailed on various service pages.
1 in 3 seniors falls every year, and falls are the #1 cause of injury-related hospitalization in older adults.
After a fall, 50% of seniors lose independence, even when no fracture occurs.
Most falls happen inside the home, not outside — making home physiotherapy the most effective intervention.
40-50% of seniors develop fear of falling — even when the fall caused no injury.
The fear of falling creates a negative cycle where fear of falling = less activity = increased risk of future falls.
An Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of the cure. Call now to ask questions and begin recovery today.
Our Home Physio Approach for Senior Fall Prevention & Balance
As the majority of falls happen within the home, it is the ideal environment to perform balance training.
Exercises are tailored to their home layout, not a clinic setting. We identify hazards (rugs, stairs, bathroom risks) and modify them instantly.
Most falls happen inside the home, not outside — making home physiotherapy the most effective intervention.
Our approach addresses: Leg weakness & reduced muscle power, Gait abnormalities (slow, shuffling, uneven steps), Vestibular issues & dizziness, Limited mobility & difficulty turning / standing and much more.
We directly address the fear of falling, encouraging patients to understand the risk while minimizing fear. Saving 10 seconds by reaching in a dangerous way is never worth the risk of a fall.
