I will carry out an extensive assessment. This will involve looking at your movement, strength, mobility, coordination, range of motion and balance. I will conduct some tests during the initial assessment to have a quantifiable picture of your current level of physical ability.

I will give you specific exercises to reactivate and strengthen certain muscle groups.

If there is any muscle or joint stiffness, I may offer you soft tissue mobilisations or massage.

I will prescribe targeted balance exercises if a lack of balance is impacting your mobility.

I may address your walking pattern and carry out gait re-education.

I am committed to assisting you in achieving your personal goals: for example, getting out of the house and walking to the local shops with confidence.

I may advise you on lifestyle and fatigue management.

If you have had a fall, I will carry out a full assessment to determine the cause. I will aim to build your confidence if you have a fear of falling.

I may assess your home environment to determine if there are any trip hazards.

If suitable, I can advise regarding equipment that may benefit you at home.

I will give you a personalised exercise programme that is printed clearly with pictures and easy for you to follow when you are on your own or with your carer or family member.

I may contact your GP if medical problems need to be addressed.
