PALM BEACH COUNTY / DEERFIELD BEACH, FLORIDA
Be On The Move: Experienced Board-Certified Physical Therapists in DEERFIELD BEACH!
As the premier at home physical therapy services provider in Deerfield Beach, FL, we proudly offer cutting-edge therapy for gait-training at home and more! Our practice is grounded in evidence-based methodologies, ensuring superior patient outcomes...
You’ll undergo a detailed gait assessment using visual and/or video analysis. We then create an exercise and practice schedule, which may include treadmill training, step drills, balance exercises, and mobility work. Progress is monitored regularly to ensure continuous improvement. During your sessions, you might practice walking on different surfaces or inclines to test and improve your adaptability. We’ll also educate you on proper footwear choices, possibly recommending custom orthotics for added support. Over time, as your stamina and technique improve, we’ll integrate more complex movement patterns, ensuring your gait remains stable in real-world environments—like crossing busy streets or walking up stairs.
Patients recovering from orthopedic procedures, those with neurological conditions like stroke or Parkinson’s, or anyone dealing with chronic gait-related pain or instability. Gait Training is also suitable for older adults concerned about falling or anyone noticing a progressive change in their walking pattern. If you reside in Palm Beach County—Boca Raton, Boynton Beach, Wellington, or Lake Worth—and want to move with more confidence and efficiency, Gait Training at Be On The Move can be a pivotal step toward better mobility.
What does a gait assessment involve?
We observe your walking pattern, possibly record a video, and analyze stride length, foot placement, and posture.
Do I need special shoes or orthotics?
In some cases, orthotics can help. We’ll assess your foot mechanics and recommend solutions if needed.
Can gait training help me walk without a cane or walker?
It often can. We focus on strength, balance, and posture to reduce dependence on assistive devices.
How soon after surgery should I start gait training?
As soon as your doctor clears you, we can initiate gentle exercises to facilitate a safer recovery.
Will I need to do exercises at home?
Yes. Home practice is critical for reinforcing improvements made during in-clinic sessions.
Does gait training help with nerve-related issues?
Yes. We adapt exercises to improve neuromuscular coordination and help retrain your walking patterns.
How long does it take to see improvement?
Many notice changes within a few weeks. Progress depends on consistency, health status, and severity of the condition.
