Strength and balance
Progressive exercises can support steadier walking, safer transfers and confidence with everyday movement.
Exercise therapy for older adults
Safe, practical exercise therapy for older adults at home.
Exercise therapy can help older adults build strength, improve balance, move more confidently and stay active in daily life. Louise provides one-to-one home physiotherapy across much of Cumbria, with each programme adapted to the person rather than a fixed routine.
What this can include
Support shaped around your ability, confidence and home environment.
Falls prevention
Louise can assess falls risk and build a realistic programme for balance, strength and confidence.
Mobility at home
Sessions can focus on walking, stairs, getting out of a chair and the movements that matter day to day.
Confidence and routine
Exercise is easier to continue when it fits your home, energy levels, health and personal goals.
Common questions
Questions people often ask
Is exercise therapy suitable for older adults?
Yes, when it is assessed and adapted properly. Louise will consider health, mobility, confidence and goals before recommending exercises.
Can sessions happen at home?
Yes. Home visits make it easier to practise movement in the setting where daily activity actually happens.
Do I need to be fit before starting?
No. Exercises are tailored to current ability and can start gently, then progress when appropriate.
