Geriatric physiotherapy in Dubai

What treatment may include

Independence, safely maintained
The goal of geriatric physiotherapy is not just recovery from a specific problem — it is helping older adults stay mobile, confident and independent for as long as possible. Falls are one of the biggest threats to that independence, and balance and strength work are among the most effective ways to reduce the risk.
Frequently asked questions
Is physiotherapy safe for older adults?
Yes. Programmes are tailored to the individual’s health, mobility and goals, and progressed carefully. Physiotherapy is one of the most effective ways to maintain independence with age.
Can you visit at home?
Yes. Home-based physiotherapy is often ideal for older adults, particularly where travel is difficult. We deliver home visits across Dubai.
Can it reduce the risk of falls?
Balance and strength programmes are well supported for reducing fall risk in older adults. We assess your specific risk factors and build a programme around them.
