Empower Yourself, Maintain Your Independence
Decrease your chances of falling and be prepared for when you need it. Gain the skills & courage to go for a long walk with friends & family or a big hike in the mountains.
Balance and Falls Workshop
Heather Lane Physical Therapy Balance & Falls Workshop improves your balance and gives you the skills to prevent injury during a fall. Created by Dr. Patrick Donovan, a physical therapist specializing in helping seniors live healthy and active lifestyles. During four weekly, one-hour classes, you learn:
- how to properly get up and down off the floor
- improve your weakest component of balance
- improve your leg strength, agility, and power
- how to land safely and reduce your risk of falling
Over 40% of older adults who fall & fracture a hip are unable to regain their previous level of independence. Don’t be a statistic.
Studies show that Balance & Falls workshops reduce falls by 29% and reduce fall-related medical costs by 34%.
