Physical activity in older adults leads to less risk of chronic disease and preserves functional abilities. Improved strength, mobility and balance can all be achieved from a comfortable sturdy chair. Improved circulation can be achieved from simply rolling wrists and ankle in a circular motion. 20 rotations clockwise and counterclockwise. Seated leg calf raises help with lower leg strength and assists with swollen ankles and feet. Lift your heels from the ground as high as you can while staying on your tip toes. Perform 10 times. For further chair exercises contact your local physiotherapist. Stay well!
