Geriatric Rehab

Geriatric rehabilitation is focused on helping older adults maintain mobility, independence, and quality of life. At Relaunch Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Centre, we offer age-appropriate, gentle physiotherapy programs that address issues like arthritis, balance problems, joint stiffness, post-surgical recovery, and general weakness.
