Step Up to Help FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers ‘Fight the Fall’
Falls are the leading cause of both fatal and nonfatal injuries among older adults, and at FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers in Westminster, Colorado, we're committed to changing that statistic. With our specialized fall prevention programs, we're here to help our community stay safe, steady, and secure.
The Risk of Falls
Every year, more than one in four seniors experience a fall, putting them at a heightened risk of injury and serious long-term health complications. The impact of these falls can be devastating, leading to loss of independence, increased medical costs, and a decreased quality of life.
September: A Month Dedicated to Fall Prevention
While fall prevention and balance retraining are year-round priorities at FYZICAL, September holds special significance. This month features National Falls Prevention Day on September 22nd, as well as the National Council on Aging’s Falls Awareness Week from September 18th to 22nd. These events serve as a reminder of the importance of being proactive in identifying and addressing fall risks.
