Falls assessment & prevention

Physiotherapy for falls prevention

Reduce your risk & fear of falling

Here at Extra Steps Physio we understand how debilitating falls can be. Falls destroy confidence, increase isolation and reduce independence, with research suggesting that around 1 in 10 older people who fall become afraid to leave their homes. 

As we age, maintaining balance and mobility becomes crucial for a healthy and independent lifestyle. For the older population, falls can lead to serious consequences, impacting both physical and mental wellbeing. But did you know that falls prevention exercises have been proven to be extremely effective in reducing falls? 

So whether you’re already experiencing falls, or you’re looking to be proactive in reducing your risk of future falls, it’s never too early or too late to take action and get the tailored support you need. Contact us today to book a thorough assessment and let us help you reduce your risk of falls.
