Falls Prevention and Rehabilitation
If you are falling over or you have a relative or is becoming less steady on their feet, this can be a real worry. Perhaps you are concerned about being able to stay in your own home and maintain your independence, maybe getting up to go to the loo makes you anxious or you can no longer take your dog for a walk without worrying about falling over.
Elderly physiotherapy at home for the older adult, or someone with a disability at risk of falling can benefit from a tailored home programme to build confidence, strength, agility and balance.
Falls prevention physiotherapy looks at the risks around you at home, how you move. I can work with you on balance, looking for hazards in the home and working on making things as safe as possible.
Balance physiotherapy can be fun, let’s dance, go for a walk, get out to the shops or even just down your steps into the garden.
Building confidence doing activities you enjoy can lead to greater strength, balance and function, this may mean using a walking aid or changing the layout of your home, but we will work on this together so you maintain control of your health and well-being.
