Physiotherapy for the Elderly (Geriatrics): Improving Mobility and Quality of Life

Physiotherapy for the elderly focuses on enhancing mobility, reducing pain, and improving overall function. As people age, they often experience conditions like arthritis, osteoporosis, and muscle weakness, which can affect their daily activities. Physiotherapy helps manage these conditions through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and balance training, promoting independence and reducing the risk of falls. Geriatric physiotherapy also addresses post-surgery recovery and chronic conditions, helping elderly individuals maintain a high quality of life. With proper rehabilitation, seniors can regain strength, flexibility, and confidence in their physical abilities.
