Geriatric Mobility & Fall Prevention
Clinical Overview
JSK Geriatric Rehabilitation program is designed to restore walking confidence, build lower-limb strength, and prevent falls for senior citizens. We retrain balance reflexes, correct gait deviations, and supply home-safety tips to ensure independent active aging.
Challenges We Resolve
High Risk of Falls & Instability
Unsteadiness when turning, climbing stairs, or walking on uneven floors, leading to severe fall concerns.
Sarcopenia & Leg Weakness
Age-related loss of muscle mass, making standing up from chairs, climbing stairs, and walking long distances difficult.
Fear of Falling & Sedentary Habit
Restricting activities due to fear of falling, which leads to joint stiffness, muscle weakness, and dependency.
JSK's Treatment Methodology
Proprioception & Balance Training
Practicing standing and walking on foam pads, balance boards, and step-over paths to retrain balance reflexes.
Leg Strength Maintenance
Performing gentle, senior-friendly exercises like sits-to-stands and calf raises to build walking endurance.
Gait Phase Correction
Correcting posture, stride length, and heel-strike landing patterns during walking to ensure maximum stability.
Home Safety Education
Providing tips to eliminate indoor hazards (dim lighting, loose rugs, bathroom safety) to prevent slips.
