WINCHESTER, VA – Old age is risky to the life and limbs of seniors as it is a fact that from above the age of 65, an individual is more prone to fall accidents.

Westminster Canterbury residence offers seniors a variety of exercise programs with the intention of reducing accidents.

Resident wellness manager Kathy Headley stated that any kind of exercise not using toy apparatus, like water is fantastic for old folks as it alleviates knee replacements, hip replacements, and any kind of joint pain.

Lydia Meffor, another resident added that she has been doing the exercises for three years and she has no problem walking
