Can physiotherapy help after a fall even if nothing is broken?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, physiotherapy can be very helpful after a fall even if there are no fractures. A fall can lead to muscle weakness, reduced balance, fear of falling, or joint stiffness. Physiotherapy focuses on improving strength, balance, coordination and confidence to reduce the risk of future falls and help you return safely to daily activities.
