As we age, maintaining physical health becomes crucial for preserving independence and quality of life. Physiotherapy offers a proactive approach to address common challenges faced by older adults, supporting them in staying active and confident in their bodies.
If there’s one thing Sylvia and Des have truly mastered, it’s the art of ageing with panache and good humour. They have found the secret to keeping the years at bay, all while living independently in the comfort of their cherished home.

The Role of Occupational Therapy in Supporting Mental Wellbeing
Just like how everyone has physical health, we all have mental health and wellbeing—and at different times in life, it can be more positive or more challenging. Occupational Therapy can play a significant role in helping people maintain positive mental health and adapt to the everyday stressors.
