Geriatric Physiotherapy
Geriatric physiotherapy is a specialised branch of rehabilitation science that focuses on the clinical management of the movement and functional deficits associated with ageing. Its main goals are to maintain functional independence, manage chronic pain and prevent falls through personalised strengthening, gait retraining and balance programmes. At the heart of our care is therapeutic exercise, which helps manage and limit the structural changes that result from the ageing process. In particular, exercise brings significant benefits to people with osteoporosis and sarcopenia, while also stimulating cognitive function and supporting the mental health of older adults.
