Free Fall Risk Screenings in Coral Springs
Concerned about losing your balance or falling? If you have Medicare, we offer a free, no-pressure Balance Fall Risk Screening to help you stay safe, steady, and in control. Our Safety Overhead Harness System ensures that everyone is able to be assessed with peace of mind.
Why Get a Fall Risk Screening?
- Falls are preventable — and common. More than 30% of adults aged 65 and over fall each year, often resulting in serious injuries ranging from fractures to head trauma, mobility loss, or even a decline in independence
- Physical therapy works. Our skilled physical therapists use evidence-based assessments and personalized exercise plans that have been shown to drastically reduce fall risk and build strength, confidence, and mobility
- Early detection matters. Identifying balance issues before a fall occurs allows us to design a safe, targeted program that can prevent injuries, keep you active—and help you reclaim your independence
What Happens in the Screening?
- Warm welcome & health chat—We’ll discuss any previous falls, dizziness, medications, lifestyle, and safe mobility goals.
- Hands-on tests such as:
- Timed Up & Go (TUG) – Stand, walk a short distance, turn, and sit. Slower performance could signal fall risk
- Balance tasks – From one-leg stance to shifting your weight safely. These hands-on tests help reveal balance challenges
- Posture & gait analysis – Watch how you walk, stand, and recover from shifts in balance.
- Report—We’ll explain your results clearly, pointing out strengths and areas to improve.
- Personalized action plan – You’ll leave with recommendations and next steps—from simple at-home exercises to potential therapy sessions tailored to your needs.
Our Approach: What Sets Us Apart
- Comprehensive balance & fall risk assessment – Just like FYZICAL clinics across the country, ours examine not only whether you might fall, but why—so we can address core issues like vestibular function, strength, vision, or footwear.
- Tailored programs for real people – Whether you're a senior returning to activity, someone recovering from injury, or just looking to stay safe, we customize exercises that fit your life, pace, and goals.
- Certified specialists you can trust – Our physical therapists are trained in balance and vestibular therapies, offering expert care in a warm, welcoming environment.
- Boosting confidence alongside ability – We understand that fear of falling can be just as limiting as the risk itself. Our team helps clients rebuild trust in their own bodies step by step.
