Geriatric Physiotherapy in Indirapuram

Geriatric physiotherapy helps older adults stay strong, steady and independent, treating the effects of ageing, arthritis, falls, illness and surgery.

Older adults who are slowing down, have fallen or fear falling, live with arthritis, Parkinson's or osteoporosis, or are recovering from hospital stays or surgery.

It commonly helps with osteoporosis, knee osteoarthritis, Parkinson's disease, dementia, hip fracture and stroke / cerebrovascular accident. Frailty and fear of falling are common reasons to start.

Stronger legs, better balance, fewer falls, easier walking and stairs, less pain, and more confidence living independently.

Strength and balance respond to training at any age. Programmes use practical exercises such as standing from a chair and stepping, progress them safely, and make the home safer.

We test strength, balance, walking speed and transfers with simple timed tests, check fall risk, medications and the home, and agree goals such as walking to the park.

After a quick check on how you have been since the last visit, the session combines hands-on treatment or electrotherapy where it helps, such as joint pain physiotherapy and TENS therapy, with guided exercises like senior citizen exercises and sit to stand. It ends with an updated home programme.

It is usually combined with joint pain physiotherapy, TENS therapy, heat therapy (thermotherapy) and elderly care at home, depending on your assessment and how you respond.

Common exercises include senior citizen exercises, sit to stand, fall prevention exercises, balance training, chair exercises and walking exercises. They start at a comfortable level and are progressed as you improve.

A session usually takes 45 minutes, paced to the person's energy, covering a progress check, treatment and an update to your home exercises.

A course of 8 to 12 weeks usually gives measurable gains, then an ongoing home programme.
