Balance Training & Falls Prevention
The aging process inevitably impacts balance and gait posing increasing risks for falls in the geriatric population. Effective balance and fall recovery strategies involve complex dynamics of strength, flexibility, posture and stability. As balance deteriorates so too does the quality of life as individuals become more reliant on adaptive equipment and participate less in activities of interest due to the fear of falling. This results in a downward spiral which only accelerates the balance troubles and risks of falling.
In order to effectively restore balance, a multifaceted approach must be employed which improves all dynamics of balance including strength, flexibility and stability. Our physical therapists are well versed in the latest treatment techniques and protocols to maximize your restoration of balance and reduce your risks of falls in the quickest time possible.
All services are provided one-one-one with our expert doctor of physical therapy providers. We utilize a "hands-on" approach with a variety of manual therapy techniques that provide superior outcomes. Each treatment is custom designed to your individual treatment needs.
Treatment Techniques & Equipment
A customized and hands on treatment approach is crucial to your success if you are experiencing balance trouble or have experienced recent falls. Furthermore, it is essential to receive a full head-to-toe evaluation because balance troubles often coincide with other movement dysfunctions, gait problems and posture issues. We focus on your body as a whole and treat it as such, not only focusing on one movement domain, but all of the various sources and related causes which often compound to result in poor balance and gait. This is why Step 1 of our process is your Comprehensive Movement Assessment.
