Strength Impairment

Walking requires a significant amount of strength to push off with the leg muscles and maintain proper form. Unfortunately, as we age or deal with certain conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, or other conditions, our muscle strength can decline. Our physical therapists create a personalized strengthening regimen that takes into account each patient’s condition and overall health. This program increases your ability to function through activities of your daily living.

Greendale Physical Therapy can help you manage these issues, including:

  • Customized gait training to improve walking and reduce the risk of falls
  • Exercises to improve balance and coordination
  • Strength-training to increase muscle strength Exericise to help with flexibility

Greendale Physical Therapy, LLC helped me regain the strength in my ankles and feet to keep me walking and continue to exercise and golf. The staff are all well skilled, pleasant, and supportive. I would highly recommend them to my friends for PT. They are a great group!
