Adults over 65 years of age face unique physical challenges that require special care and consideration.
While many senior citizens keep active with moderate exercise, walks, sports and yoga, they are often predisposed to age-related changes and functional impairments that affect mobility, muscle strength and endurance.
The presence of comorbidities like hypertension and diabetes also adds to issues faced by this age group.
Ageing manifests itself differently person to person due to genetics, lifestyle and overall health.
Physiotherapy is an extremely effective tool to overcome or significantly delay the onset of certain age related conditions, with timely intervention and exercise.
