🚶‍♀️ Falls aren’t a normal part of aging — and they CAN be prevented.

The right kind of exercise makes a big difference:

✔️ Multicomponent training (balance + strength + functional movements)
⬇️ Fall rate by 34% | ⬇️ Risk by 22%

✔️ Balance + functional training
⬇️ Fall rate by 24% | ⬇️ Risk by 13%

✔️ Tai Chi
⬇️ Fall rate by 19% | ⬇️ Risk by 20%

💡 Not all exercise is equal — programs that challenge balance and movement skills are key.

👩‍⚕️ Physical therapists can design personalized programs to keep you safe, strong, and independent.

I decided to quit my job because the weights were too heavy. So I handed in my too-weak notice. I just hope the next guy works out better.
