SENIOR PHYSIOTHERAPY
Live Better at Every Age
What is Senior Physiotherapy?
Staying active and independent is important at every stage of life. As we get older, changes in strength, balance, flexibility and mobility can sometimes make everyday activities more challenging, but the right support can help you continue doing the things you love with confidence.
Senior physiotherapy is designed to address the unique physical needs of older adults. Whether you are managing arthritis, recovering from surgery, noticing changes in your balance, or simply looking to maintain your strength and mobility, Wintergreen physiotherapy can help.

How Physiotherapy for Seniors Can Help You
You don't need to be recovering from an injury to benefit from physiotherapy. A treatment plan can be used proactively to help maintain strength, movement and confidence as you age.
What We Offer
Rehabilitation After Surgery
Physiotherapy can help identify factors that may be affecting your balance, strength and mobility. Your treatment plan may incorporate exercises designed to improve lower-body strength, coordination and balance while helping you become more confident with everyday movement.
Whether your goal is to feel steadier walking outside, navigate stairs more comfortably or simply move around your home with greater confidence, we'll work with you toward the activities that matter most.
Physiotherapy can help you find appropriate ways to keep moving while managing discomfort. Treatment may focus on improving joint mobility, strengthening the muscles surrounding affected joints and adapting activities to make everyday movement more manageable.
Your physiotherapist can also provide exercises and strategies that you can continue at home to support your mobility between appointments.
Balance & Fall Prevention
Joint Pain Management
Recovering from surgery can take time, and having the right rehabilitation plan can make an important difference in restoring movement and function. Senior physiotherapy can support recovery following procedures: hip or knee replacement, and/or other orthopaedic surgeries.
Depending on your needs and your surgeon's recommendations, rehabilitation may focus on gradually restoring range of motion, rebuilding strength, improving walking and balance, and helping you return to everyday activities safely.
How to Get Started
Everyone's goals are different.
You might want to walk farther without discomfort, feel steadier on your feet, recover after a joint replacement, get back into the garden, or simply continue doing everyday activities independently.
At Wintergreen Physiotherapy & Sports Medicine, we will work with you to create a treatment plan based on what is important to you.
Senior physiotherapy rates are available for patients ages 65+.
