Will Physical Therapy Help Problems I Have Noticed With My Balance?
I am elderly and have noticed problems getting up out of a chair and some problems with my balance, will physical therapy help?
First, you should talk with your physician about your condition to rule out any neurological problem. If your physician has determined that you need some help with balance and strength there are several ways that Excel’s physical therapists can help. A structured exercise program including aerobic exercise on a stationary bike or walking, balance training with a PT, and general strengthening for the lower extremities will help you get up out of a chair without difficulty and decrease the likelihood of falling.
