As we age we lose muscle strength, bone density and neuro-muscular control. All this leads to a greater risk of falling because your muscles are weaker, and you don’t have the control to move quickly or correct yourself as easily – meaning your balance is reduced.
Test Yourself-
Can you stand on one leg for 30 seconds?
If not – you will be a FALLS RISK over the next 10 years, but you have a decade to do something about it!
Book in to see one of our Physios, who are highly trained in assessing your falls risk and giving you strategies to reduce this risk with Brain, Balance and Strength training.
