Geriatric Physiotherapy

As we age, our bodies undergo various changes that can affect our physical function and mobility. Aging can result in decreased muscle mass, loss of balance, and reduced flexibility, which can increase the risk of falls and injury. 

 

Geriatric Physiotherapy is a specialized form of physiotherapy that we offer here at Dun-Dix Healthcare Clinic that focuses on promoting mobility, function, and independence in older adults. At our clinic, we offer a range of services to help seniors maintain their physical function, prevent falls, and improve their overall quality of life.

The goal is to promote physical function and mobility, prevent falls, and enhance overall quality of life.

The best clinic to get your custom orthotics! I’m a nurse and work countless hours on my feet and I’ve been wearing the orthotics from this location for a good while now and they make all the difference.

I’ve had shoulder pain since a car accident I experienced a few years ago and I had gone to physio for a while until I decided to stop my treatment. Recently I had been noticing that my shoulder is getting worse again so I decided to go to this clinic for some help. I am really glad I did. The physio services they offer were better than any i’ve had before and they actually provided me with the exercises to do on my own so I can keep working on the recovery of my shoulder at home. Overall im really happy and would recommend this clinic to anyone in the area.

I can’t speak highly enough about this clinic. I sustained some injuries while participating in my favorite sports and with their help they have been alleviated thanks to their therapy treatments. Once again, many thanks.

I experienced a car accident injury about 4.5 months ago and finally have healed from it but I have remaining pain in that area. I went to this clinic looking for help with rehabilitation and I’m really happy with the service I received. Would recommend them.

I go to this clinic regularly for massage therapy and I always leave the clinic feeling refreshed. I sit constantly at work so I experience a lot of back pain but with their help I finally feel relief from the pain I was experiencing before- totally worth it.

How Is Geriatric Physiotherapy Different Than Other Physiotherapy Services?

Geriatric Physiotherapy is a specialized area of physiotherapy that is specifically tailored to meet the needs of older adults. As we age, our bodies undergo a variety of changes that can impact our physical function and mobility. Geriatric Physiotherapy is designed to address these changes and help older adults maintain their independence and quality of life.

 

One of the primary differences between Geriatric Physiotherapy and other physiotherapy services is the focus on age-related conditions. As we age, we become more susceptible to conditions such as arthritis, osteoporosis, and chronic pain. Geriatric Physiotherapists are trained to assess and treat these conditions, as well as other age-related issues such as balance and gait disturbances.

 

Another key difference between Geriatric Physiotherapy and other physiotherapy services is the approach to treatment. Geriatric Physiotherapists understand that older adults may have unique physical limitations or mobility challenges, and they tailor their treatment plans accordingly. They may use a variety of techniques such as exercise, manual therapy, and education to help older adults achieve their goals and maintain their independence.
