With ageing falls and the fear of falling start to impact on the way the elderly live their lives. In fact 1 in 4 people over 60 years of age will experience a fall each year. The consequences of this can be hip fractures, head injuries, hospital admissions and lead to a loss of independence.
There are many reasons why the risk of falls increase as you age, including decreased strength and proprioception, slowing reflexes and saving ability, increased medications and declining eyesight, as well as external factors such as home environment and footwear.
Physiotherapists are trained to assess all areas that may lead to falls. At Future Physio our specialist home visit team can individually address factors to help you reduce your risk of falls. We are trained in walking aid presciption, exercise and balance training and can develop a program that specifically meets your needs.
Our therapists can work with you on a regular basis to increase your strength and balance or prescribe a program for you to complete in the comfort of your own home.
If you are concerned about yourself of a family member and their risk of falling, get in touch today to chat to one of our friendly team members.

Did you know that exercise has been shown through research to have many positive effects for clients living with dementia?
Regular exercise and physical activity can help improve things like coordination, balance, functional ability, cognition and create a better sense of wellbeing. It can also help improve sleep and reduce levels of agitation. Falls prevention also is a key focus for this client group, with studies showing that people with dementia are four to five times more likely to experience a fall compared with their peers.
In Early Onset Alzheimers Disease research has shown that regular exercise can help to slow progression of symptoms. At Future Physio we are able to see both self managed and plan managed NDIS clients.
Our team of highly experienced physiotherapists and exercise physiologists can work with you to build a regular exercise program that suits you or your family member’s current functional level.
