Geriatric Physical Therapy

What is Geriatric Physical Therapy?

Geriatric therapy is a specialized branch of healthcare that focuses on addressing the unique needs and challenges older adults face. As individuals age, they often experience mobility, balance, and overall physical function changes, which can be influenced by factors such as chronic health conditions, joint degeneration, and neurological issues. Geriatric therapy aims to enhance the quality of life for older adults by optimizing their physical abilities and promoting independence.
