What Geriatric Rehab Helps Treat

Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. It is especially common in seniors and can significantly impair mobility and independence.

At Synaptic Rehab, our physical therapists design personalized exercise programs that help strengthen bones and improve balance, reducing the risk of falls and fractures. We focus on safe, gentle exercises tailored to your specific health needs and limitations.

Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis involves the degradation of joint cartilage, leading to pain and stiffness in the joints. It’s the most common form of arthritis affecting the elderly.

Our therapy sessions aim to alleviate pain and restore joint function through a combination of manual therapy, tailored exercises, and education on joint protection techniques. We help you manage your symptoms effectively in the comfort of your home, promoting an active and fulfilling lifestyle.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder that not only affects joints but can also involve various body systems. This condition leads to swelling, pain, and potential deformities in the joints.

Our team are skilled in creating customized treatment plans that focus on reducing inflammation, preserving joint function, and enhancing overall well-being. Our sessions include exercises to increase flexibility, strength, and endurance, along with pain management strategies.
