Balance and Gait Training

Balance and walking difficulties can affect your confidence, safety and independence. You may feel unsteady, have trouble using stairs or begin avoiding certain activities because you are afraid of falling.

​

Your physical therapist may evaluate your strength, coordination, joint movement, posture and walking pattern to identify factors that may be affecting your stability.
