Balance & Vestibular Rehab

Falls Are Not
A Normal Part Of Aging

As we age, it’s natural to worry about falling.  However, it’s important to understand that falls are NOT an inevitable part of aging.  At FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers we specialize in fall prevention and empower older adults to feel confident, maintain stability, and stay steady on their feed. We believe that balance is core to your wellness!

Balance and gait training works with your neurological, musculoskeletal, and sensory systems to keep them functioning together properly.

With the help of our dedicated team of physical therapists at FYZICAL, you’ll regain your confidence in navigating difficult terrain and learn how to avoid dizzy spells.
