Balance & Fall Prevention
Regain Confidence, Strength, and Stability
Falls are one of the leading causes of injury among older adults, often affecting confidence and independence. At Project Health, our Balance & Fall Prevention Training program helps you or your loved one rebuild stability, coordination, and confidence through evidence-based physical therapy. Whether at home or in the clinic, our compassionate team creates a personalized plan to help you move safely, prevent falls, and live more independently.
As we age, balance can be affected by reduced muscle strength, slower reflexes, vision changes, and health conditions such as arthritis or neuropathy. These factors increase the risk of falls, which can lead to serious injuries and limit mobility. Our therapists identify the root causes of imbalance and use targeted strategies to restore your body’s stability and confidence.
