Geriatric physiotherapy

Geriatric physiotherapy

      Geriatric physiotherapy, or geriatric physical therapy, is a specialized field of healthcare that focuses on addressing the unique needs and challenges faced by older adults. As people age, they may experience a decline in physical function, mobility, and overall health. Geriatric physiotherapy aims to improve the quality of life for seniors by addressing issues related to musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiopulmonary conditions. Here are some key aspects of geriatric physiotherapy:
    • Assessment and Evaluation: Geriatric physiotherapists conduct thorough assessments to evaluate an older individual’s functional abilities, balance, strength, flexibility, and overall health. This assessment helps identify areas of concern and tailor interventions to the individual’s specific needs.
    • Fall Prevention: Falls are a significant concern for the elderly, and geriatric physiotherapy often includes exercises and interventions to improve balance, coordination, and strength, reducing the risk of falls and related injuries.
