I’ve recently started using a drop piece table specifically designed for geriatric patients, and it has made such a difference in their comfort level during adjustments. It’s amazing how something as simple as altering the tool we use can significantly improve their mobility and confidence. I’m curious if anyone else has any go-to tools that have enhanced their practice for older adults?
I love using a drop table too! I’ve found that adding heat packs before adjustments really relaxes the muscles. It’s a game changer for comfort.

I’ve had great success with a bolster for supporting geriatric patients’ knees during adjustments. It really helps them feel more secure. Have you tried that?
I’ve found that using supportive pillows really helps too; they provide extra comfort during the drop piece adjustments for seniors. Have you tried that, @lisa_w02?
