Restore PT: How PTCan Help Common Health Risks

Discover How Physical Therapy Can Help Common Health Risks in People Over 60

Continued from previous page.

Our physical function is affected due to the changes in our muscles and joints. This leads to an expected reduction in our walking speed and overall mobility decline. Unfortunately, these changes also make us more susceptible to falls. Falls are the leading cause of injury among older adults. How Physical Therapy Can Help There are some preventative measures that you can take on your own to try and avoid some of these health conditions; however, sometimes, the aid of a professional becomes necessary. Physical therapy treatments are a safe, healthy, and easy way to correct some of these conditions and prevent your risk of developing them. Together with our physical therapists, we can create a physical exercise plan to ensure you’re getting as much physical activity as you can throughout the day. This will include treatment-specific exercises to increase strength and overall mobility to help prevent other health issues. It is also essential to maintain a healthy diet, ensuring you have sufficient protein to help with bone strength and minimize muscle wasting. Our physical therapists can help set up a meal plan for you to ensure you’re getting the nutrients you need and maintaining a healthy weight. Your physical therapist may also suggest at-home exercises for you to do. They may also offer another form of treatment, such as aquatic therapy, to increase muscle strength and ease discomfort. It’s Your Body, It’s Your Choice No Doctor Referral Necessary Whether you want to come in for a check-up, suffered a recent injury or you want to improve your health, a doctor referral is not needed. In the state of New Jersey you have direct access to physical therapy! Why not use it!
