How Physiotherapy in London Improve the Lives of the Elderly

By: BryanKelly (Psst, View author in Google Plus) Date: Jul 14th, 2015

Most people believe that problems with muscle weakness and balance are irreversible effects of ageing, and are among the reasons why around 70 per cent of the elderly over 65 years old find themselves admitted in hospitals. Their problems with balance and weakness are also seen as the cause of 3 million cases of falls occurring among older people each year, which collectively costs £2.3 billion annually.


The elderly need not lose hope, however, for undergoing physiotherapy in London can still address their problems with their motor skills. Even the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy firmly believes that over 200,000 of falls among the elderly can be prevented through physiotherapy services.

How Physio in London Helps Older People   

Majority of the elderly population often experience back or neck pain, arthritis, repetitive strain injury, and osteoporosis, while some may even have conditions like heart diseases, diabetes, or even cancer. Several physio in London like CK Physio can provide many treatment options, including heat or cold treatments, massage, acupuncture, and electrotherapy among many others, all aiming to improve the overall well-being of elderly patients.

Older people with difficulties in their motor skills can greatly benefit from physiotherapy, for it can help in improving their joint mobility and alleviate the pain they might experience. Moreover, physiotherapy has also been seen to aid people with dementia, with physiotherapists playing a key role in ensuring that a patient receives high-quality care and their daily needs.

Reduction of Falls among the Elderly

One particular physiotherapy programme at the South Tyneside shows how effective physiotherapy in London can improve an elderly’s mobility. With the help of a physiotherapist that exactly pinpoints the cause of the problem and suggesting how the patient can prevent them in the future, over 81 per cent of elderly patients reported that there had been a decrease in falls within six months after receiving care.

Once the problem with muscle weakness and balance has been dealt with, older people will then find themselves engaging in physical exercise. Even people well into their 100s were able to benefit from the right type of exercise, which only shows that no one can ever be too old for physical activity. Finding the ideal physiotherapy programme will not only make elderly patients fit, but they can also reduce the pressure of care from their families, making them more independent for a longer time.

An older person’s mobility problems can be relieved, if not completely treated, once they undergo physio in London-based clinics such as CK Physio. When they receive the treatment they need, they no longer have to feel like prisoners of their aching joints and muscles. They will have more time and energy to enjoy their daily life.
