BALANCE / FALL PREVENTION PROGRAM

Many patients who are referred to us for a particular diagnosis also complain of poor balance, fear of falling or a history of falls.  In order to better serve these patients we have developed balance and fall prevention exercises to incorporate into their physical therapy program.
