Geriatric Physical Therapy

In humans, geriatric physical therapy covers a wide area of issues addressing normal adult aging, but is usually focused on a much older person. Many conditions affect humans as they age and include but are not limited to: Arthritis, osteoporosis, cancer, hip and joint replacement, balance disorders, incontinence and more.

Geriatric physical therapy helps those affected by such problems in developing a specialized program to help restore mobility, reduce pain, increase fitness levels and more.

Canine rehabilitation addresses many of the same conditions in geriatric dogs and is also focused on improving or maintaining mobility, decreasing pain, and providing opportunities to enhance a dog's overall fitness.

Arthritis, rear-leg weakness, degenerative myelopathy, decreased activity tolerance, and incontinence.
