Fall Prevention Program


Falls can be attributed to a variety of factors. Be it the muscle weakness in your legs, peripheral neuropathy (numbness/lack of sensation) in your feet, the effect of some medications, dizziness, decreased reaction time, or balance impairments due to joint diseases: all these factors can make a person vulnerable to fall.

Multiple types of research have shown that the interventions that take into consideration all these multi-factors when designing a treatment plan for an older person are known to be most effective. Our highly experienced (11+years of experience) physiotherapist will perform an assessment which will include your balance testing, muscle strength testing, ongoing dizziness/vertigo and your history of neuropathy, and a list of medications that you are on to narrow down different aspects that might be contributing to your fall risk and then will create an individualized treatment plan for you.

If you or your loved one experiences a fear of fall or have fallen before or have a feeling of instability while walking, we are just a phone call away. Still not sure? Ask us about our free 15 min consultation on the phone and we will be more than happy to assist you in any way we can!
