Led by Dr. A.J. Gagliardi and Dr. Jill Caruso, this Fall Prevention Program helps you understand why fall risk increases with age and what you can do to stay strong, balanced, and safe. We will discuss ways to improve hip bone density, enhance balance, and build strength, all of which play a critical role in reducing fall risk.
Participants will learn and actively practice evidence-based exercises proven to improve stability and decrease the likelihood of injury should a fall occur. While many people believe that weakness is an inevitable part of aging, this program challenges that myth. With the right guidance, effort, and consistency, you can remain strong, confident, and active.
Join us on this empowering journey to improve strength, balance, and long-term vitality. We encourage you to bring a friend or caregiver, as they can become an important part of your support system on the path to better health. We look forward to seeing you and helping you take positive steps toward a safer, stronger future.
