Get Help for General Deconditioning Today
As we all age, it is normal for our bodies to begin to lose some function in what is known as “general deconditioning.”
This is typically a phenomenon seen in our more mature population or those populations that are sedentary for long periods of time. This may include extended hospital stays, major surgeries where recovery required decreased movement, long-term illnesses, or the less active population.
Fortunately, Physical Therapy can help with general deconditioning and can even help you regain some function that has been lost. In fact, as stated by a study conducted by the National Institutes of Health, “Physical therapists often treat older adults with marked deficits in physical function secondary to an acute hospitalization.”
