Whether you have a chronic condition or are recovering from an injury or surgery,We can help you feel better, manage daily living and enjoy recreational activities. People older than 65 years constitute one of the fastest growing population segments. This age group also exhibits the greatest proportion of chronic disease, disability, and healthcare utilization. Coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, heart failure, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, and cognitive disorders are a few of the more common diseases that become more prevalent as people age.
Regular exercise has been proven to benefit overall health and function of individuals of all ages. Moreover, risk factors for chronic disease respond to exercise interventions in younger adult populations. The same is most likely true for older adults. Unfortunately, inactivity tends to increases as people age. There is a perception that chronic disease is a part of the normal aging process, and that elderly cannot respond to lifestyle interventions; both of which are false. People who adopt lifestyle modifications, including exercise, can expect an increase in life expectancy, decrease in disability, and reduced healthcare costs.
