Exercise Physiology to help our older adults to maintain their health, well-being, functional ability and independence.
Physio Inq Exercise Physiologists have a vital and essential role in working with elderly people in our communities. They are involved in preventing disease and disability, treating current conditions, managing care, and following up in the community. Our Exercise Physiologists can identify the issues that are making the most significant impact on a senior's life and help them work to improve those, leading to a better quality of life and continued independence.
Our Aged Care Exercise Physiologists therapists are experienced in the treatment and long-term management of older people.
Whether that treatment and assessment is in homes, hospitals, aged care facilities, retirement villages or nursing homes, our Physio Inq Aged Care Exercise Physiologists come directly to where ever you want them. This removes the trauma and difficulty of having to travel to appointments, meaning elderly patients can get the care they need easily.
How exercise physiology supports healthy ageing
Exercise plays an important role in maintaining health, independence, and quality of life as we age. When guided by a qualified exercise physiologist, exercise programs are carefully adapted to suit medical conditions, physical capacity, and personal goals.
Aged care exercise physiology can help older adults to:
- Improve or slow the decline in performing activities of daily living
- Reduce the decline in functional ability
- Assistance with metabolic disease
- Increased muscle strength, flexibility, balance and control
- Reduce the risk of falls
- Pain management
- Manage the behavioural and psychological
- Improve cognition and mood
- Staying active and remaining independent
Exercise programs for older adults at home
Many older people prefer, or need, to exercise at home. Our exercise physiologists design safe and achievable exercises for the elderly at home, using familiar surroundings and simple equipment such as chairs or resistance bands.
Home-based exercise programs may include:
- Gentle strength exercises for the legs, hips, arms, and core
- Seated or supported exercises for reduced mobility
- Walking and functional movement practice
- Flexibility and posture exercises
- Simple routines that can be built into daily activities
Exercises are demonstrated clearly and progressed gradually, ensuring they remain safe and appropriate.
Balance and strength exercises for elderly people
Falls are a common concern for older Australians and can have a significant impact on independence. Exercise physiology plays an important role in falls prevention by improving strength, balance, and coordination.
Balance exercises for elderly people may focus on:
- Improving stability during standing and walking
- Strengthening muscles that support posture and balance
- Practising safe weight shifting and turning movements
- Building confidence with everyday movements
Programs are continually reviewed and adjusted to support progress while minimising risk.
