Strength and balance program for elderly.
Falls are the leading cause of injury in elderly and can lead to hip, back, or skull fractures with serious consequences. 30% of people over 65 fall at least once per year. Fall prevention through physiotherapy is one of the most effective interventions in medicine — reducing falls by 30–40%. During home physiotherapy, the therapist assesses risk factors, performs home safety review (railings, rugs, lighting), and designs a personalized program. This includes: lower extremity strengthening exercises, balance exercises with progressive difficulty, dual-task exercises, and proper gait training. The benefits are clear: fewer falls, less fear, greater autonomy, and better quality of life.
