Did you know that April is Falls Prevention month?

Falls (including slipping and tripping) are the single largest cause of injury for Kiwis across all age groups and are most common in those over 65 years of age.

Physiotherapy can help by providing exercises that will improve your strength and balance, reducing your chance of having a fall and enabling you to keep active.

If you or one of your loved ones are at risk of falls, get in touch with one of our physios today: www.physio.org.nz
