Abstract

Reduced flexibility is one of the common age-related changes that may affect functional mobility and independence in older adults. Flexibility screening is therefore important as a promotive and preventive strategy to support healthy aging. This community service program aimed to identify flexibility among older adults using the Sit and Reach Test and provide physiotherapy education for participants of the Chronic Disease Management Program (Prolanis) in Bulu Sub-district. The program was conducted in 2026 and involved 105 older adults aged ≥60 years. Flexibility was assessed using the Sit and Reach Test, followed by physiotherapy education on stretching exercises and regular physical activity. The results showed that 70.4% of participants were classified as Excellent, 24.1% as Good, 5.6% as Moderate, and none as Poor. These findings indicate that most participants had good flexibility. Flexibility screening combined with physiotherapy education may serve as an effective promotive and preventive strategy to maintain functional mobility, increase awareness of physical activity, and support the quality of life of older adults.
