Fall Prevention Program

ProHealth PT OT's multi-disciplinary Fall Prevention Program is based on the latest research. The U.S. Center for Disease Control reports that a third of the senior population over 65 and half of the senior population over 80 will fall each year. These falls often lead to catastrophic injuries and disability. Our clinicians will identify risk factors in all aspects of life, including your home, your medications, and of course your physical function, allowing us to minimize your risk of falling.

ProHealth & Fitness' unique program utilizes individually tailored exercises and activities in your home, the neighborhood senior center, or our clinic to reduce your risk of falls and enhance your mobility.  ProHealth is actively involved in ongoing evidence-based initiatives through collaboration with the New York State Department of Health's Task Force on Fall Prevention, and has programming based on principles of exercise science, Tai Chi, functional movement, and motor learning.
