How It Works
Step 1: Consultation & Assessment
We begin with a thorough evaluation of your balance, strength, mobility, and home safety risks. This helps us identify factors that may increase your likelihood of falling, such as muscle weakness, limited flexibility, or environmental hazards.
Step 2: Personalized Adjustment Plan
Based on your assessment, we create a customized program that may include:
Balance Training – Targeted exercises to improve stability and coordination.
Strengthening Exercises – Focused routines to build muscle support in the legs, hips, and core.
Mobility & Flexibility Work – Techniques to increase range of motion and make movement easier and safer.
Home Safety Education – Guidance on reducing fall hazards, such as clutter, poor lighting, or slippery surfaces.
Assistive Device Training – Support in safely using canes, walkers, or other aids if needed.
Step 3: Ongoing Support & Recovery
We provide regular follow-up sessions to track progress and adjust your plan as needed. Along with therapy, we offer lifestyle tips, at-home exercises, and education to help you stay safe and independent. Our goal is to build your confidence so you can move freely without fear of falling.
