Stretching is Good for Seniors!
For many older adults, maintaining mobility at an older age can be pretty challenging. Our bodies, like any machine, undergo many changes as we age, which can make staying active and mobile all the more difficult. However, through proper care and exercise, we can strengthen our muscles and joints to help mitigate changes and keep our bodies strong and flexible. Staying active and mobile can be a challenge, but maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle means working our body’s muscles to remain strong and mobile well into old age.
In addition to muscle and movement maintenance, stretching exercises can help delay the onset of diseases, such as diabetes and arthritis – it can even improve mental health. Especially important for seniors, stretching exercises play a crucial role in fall prevention by helping you maintain your balance and overall strength.
