In addition to our individual and caring hands on sessions, we provide evidence-based group exercise classes that focus on improving strength, balance , mobility and making activities of daily living easier.

Seniors have aliments and physiotherapy needs that are unique and require a special approach that is more gentle than traditional forms of physio treatment. 

Our approach to our older clients is to work at the limits of mobility that they are capable of, but to be sure that they do not push themselves beyond those limits. We find with this approach the physical mobility limits of our patients usually expand and resolve by themselves. With this method, our physiotherapists can help with the treatment of many conditions, including the following:

Conditions we can help with

• Arthritis
• Improving strength and muscle tone
• General mobility and independence
• Spinal pain, neck and back pain
• Neurological disorders (Parkinsons, stroke)
• Reducing stiffness and tightness
• Walking aid prescription
• Women's Health
• Improve mobility and independence
• Rehabilitation after ortho surgery (hip replacements, knee replacements)
• Preparation for ortho surgery (hip placements, knee replacements)

Our RESOURCES page has information on what to expect with KNEE REPLACEMENTS  and HIP REPLACEMENTS 

While we mainly support our more senior clients at our Hindmarsh Clinic where we can provide services, equipment and facilities, we are also able to visit clients in their homes or aged care residence. This can be on a private basis or via approved home care packages and providers that we have a service agreement with. We provide Support at Home Care services in our Hindmarsh Clinic.

Approved Physiotherapy and Exercise Physiology are clinical supports under Support at Home and have no participant contribution. You can generally choose your own providers and clinic and can choose to attend a clinic rather than trying to turn your lounge room into a gym or bed into a treatment couch.

Don't let pain, stiffness or loss of confidence hold you or someone you love back from enjoying life. Give us a call on 8346 2000 and let's talk about how our physiotherapy team can help you stay strong, independent and doing the things that matter most.
