Gait and balance refers to how a person walks and maintains their stability while moving or standing up. At Revolution Physical Therapy, we provide gait and balance physical therapy to address issues to help improve your mobility and reduce the risk of injury.
Gait and balance issues are problems that affect a person’s ability to walk steadily or maintain equilibrium while standing or moving. These issues can range from mild unsteadiness to severe mobility impairments. Gait disorders involve abnormalities in walking patterns, while balance problems relate to difficulties in maintaining stability. Both can significantly impact a person’s quality of life, independence, and safety.
Gait and balance problems can arise from a variety of factors, such as:
• Neurological conditions like stroke, Parkinson’s disease, or multiple sclerosis
• Muscle weakness or joint stiffness
• Inner ear disorders or vertigo
• Arthritis or other joint problems
• Injuries such as sprains, fractures, or trauma to the legs or spine
• Age-related degeneration of muscles and joints
Symptoms of gait and balance disorders can include:
• Unsteady or shuffling walk
• Difficulty with coordination while walking
• Staggering or stumbling
• Frequent falls or fear of falling
• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Difficulty standing still without swaying
