Geriatric physical therapy is a specialized form of physical therapy aimed at helping older adults maintain and improve their physical health and independence.
We specialize in treating seniors with conditions such as arthritis, osteoporosis, and balance issues. Helps improve mobility, balance, and strength, reducing the risk of falls and enhancing overall physical function and quality of life.
Our physical therapists are trained to help manage pain and improve physical function, using a variety of non-pharmacological approaches such as manual therapy, exercise, and education.
The goal of pain management is to improve the patient’s quality of life, reduce their reliance on pain medication, and help them return to their normal daily activities and improve their overall physical function and mobility.
Balance/Coordination training is a specialized form of exercise designed to improve an individual’s ability to maintain balance and coordination. It can be used to treat a wide range of conditions, including neurological disorders, vestibular disorders and orthopedic injuries. Balance/Coordination Training typically involves exercises that challenge an individual’s balance and coordination. The goal of Balance/Coordination Training is to improve an individual’s ability to control their body and movements.
Gait training is often used to help individuals who have experienced an injury or illness that affects their ability to walk, such as a stroke, spinal cord injury or Parkinson’s disease. Gait training also involves practicing walking on different surfaces or in different environments, such as on stairs or even/uneven surfaces, to improve an individual’s ability to navigate everyday environments. This may include exercises to improve balance, strength training to improve muscle function or use of assistive devices such as canes and walkers.
Strength training involves exercises and activities designed to increase muscle strength, power, and endurance. These exercises can be used to help individuals recover from injuries, manage chronic conditions and improve overall physical fitness. Strength training can involve a variety of techniques, including resistance training with weights or resistance bands, bodyweight exercises and functional training that mimics real-life movements. The goal of strength training is to help individuals improve their physical performance, increase their ability to perform daily tasks and prevent future injuries.
Posture training focuses on correcting poor posture and improving overall alignment of the body. It involves exercises and techniques that target the muscles responsible for maintaining good posture, as well as education and guidance on proper body mechanics and ergonomics. The goal of posture training is to reduce stress on muscles and joints, reduce pain, prevent future injuries and promote optimal movement patterns.
