Aged Care Physiotherapy
Overview of Aged Care Physiotherapy

As we age, our bodies face new challenges, from reduced mobility and balance to joint pain, stiffness, and slower recovery. At Advantage Chiropractic in Henderson, our physiotherapy team provides specialised care for older adults to help maintain independence, manage pain, and reduce the risk of falls.
Whether you’re recovering from injury, living with arthritis, or looking to stay mobile and strong as you age, our approach is safe, gentle, and tailored to your unique needs.
