Physiotherapy training of nonagenarian





Hello, this is LakshmiBen, 94 year old, who has been operated for total hip replacement in both legs with a gap of one year between the surgeries.

She has developed scoliosis (abnormal spinal curvature) since 10 years.

She is undergoing Intensive Physiotherapy Rehabilitation Training to help her walk and stand independently and improve her balance.



Even though with so many barriers she is motivated and has the will walk and complete the training.

After every session she introspects herself where she went wrong and tries to correct herself. She tries to perform simple bed exercises throughout the day, so as to improve strength in her legs and hands.
