What is Geriatric Physiotherapy?

Geriatric Physiotherapy focuses on the assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of age-related conditions affecting mobility, balance, strength, flexibility, and overall physical health.

As people age, they often experience:

• Reduced muscle strength
• Joint stiffness
• Balance problems
• Arthritis
• Reduced mobility
• Increased fall risk
• Neurological conditions
• Post-surgical recovery challenges

Professional physiotherapy helps manage these issues safely and effectively.
