Geriatric Physical Therapy

Geriatric Physical Therapy----04

We understand that as individuals age, they face unique physical challenges that can affect mobility, strength, balance, and overall functional ability. Geriatric Physical Therapy is designed to address the specific needs of older adults, helping them maintain independence, reduce pain, and improve their quality of life.

Aging can lead to a variety of physical conditions, such as arthritis, osteoporosis, joint replacements, balance disorders, and neurological conditions like stroke or Parkinson’s disease. Geriatric physical therapy focuses on treating these conditions with personalized, evidence-based interventions that are safe, effective, and tailored to the individual’s needs.

Our highly skilled physiotherapists at Core Health Physio, led by Dr. Kamalika Bhattacharya, conduct thorough assessments to create customized treatment plans for seniors. These plans aim to improve

mobility, enhance strength, alleviate pain, and prevent falls. We utilize a variety of techniques such as therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, balance training, and posture correction to help seniors regain functional independence and perform daily tasks with ease.

One of the key components of geriatric physical therapy is fall prevention. We focus on improving balance and stability to reduce the risk of falls, which are common among older adults and can lead to serious injuries. Additionally, our therapy helps manage chronic conditions, including arthritis and joint pain, by promoting joint health and improving flexibility.

At Core Health Physio, we are committed to providing compassionate and personalized care for older adults. Our goal is to help seniors live a more active, independent, and fulfilling life.
