[quote=Anonymous]Hi! My mother is in a similar position and her doctor prescribed physical therapy. It’s been great, she gets pool workouts with a trainer as well as work with a resistance band. They work on a lot of functional movements to make sure they can get up out of a chair, driver’s seat of a car etc. They also go through a lot of balance exercises to hopefully avoid a serious fall. If your mom can inquire with her GP I bet almost any senior and get an Rx for PT, it doesn’t have to be for a specific injury (I think my mom was technically diagnosed with osteopenia for her insurance to cover the sessions). Good luck! Definitely recommend getting a good therapist or trainer to come to your mom. [/quote]
