Private Physiotherapy for the Elderly

With advancing age, older adults may experience a decline in physical function, including reduced muscle strength, flexibility, and balance. This can increase the risk of falls, limit mobility, and impact activities of daily living.

Many elderly individuals live with chronic health conditions such as arthritis, osteoporosis, or cardiovascular disease, which can affect their ability to engage in physical activity and lead to pain or discomfort.

Older adults undergoing surgery, such as joint replacement or cardiac procedures, may require rehabilitation to regain mobility, strength, and function post-operatively. Our physiotherapists offer specialised physiotherapy for those recovering from hospital stays. Find out more.

Cognitive impairment, including conditions like dementia, can present challenges in elderly rehabilitation, affecting memory, attention, and decision-making skills.

Older adults may face social isolation or loneliness, which can impact mental health and overall well-being. Maintaining social connections and engagement is an important aspect of elderly rehabilitation.

Our experienced physiotherapists at Rehab Therapist design personalised exercise programmes tailored to the specific needs and goals of elderly individuals. These programmes focus on improving strength, flexibility, balance, and mobility, taking into account any existing health conditions or physical limitations.

Falls are a significant concern for older adults, but physiotherapy interventions can help reduce the risk by improving balance, gait, and proprioception. Our therapists provide exercises and techniques to enhance stability and confidence in performing daily activities safely. Find out more about our falls prevention services here.

For elderly individuals experiencing pain or discomfort, physiotherapy offers strategies for pain management, including manual therapy techniques, therapeutic exercises, and modalities such as heat or cold therapy.

Elderly rehabilitation emphasises functional training to enhance independence in activities of daily living, such as dressing, bathing, and cooking. Our therapists work with clients to improve specific functional tasks and promote greater autonomy.

We provide education and support to elderly individuals and their families, offering guidance on home exercises, adaptive equipment, and lifestyle modifications to support ongoing rehabilitation and self-management.

Our multidisciplinary approach involves collaborating with other healthcare professionals, such as occupational therapists, geriatricians, and social workers, to ensure holistic care addressing the diverse needs of older adults.
