Isle of Man health professionals discuss common condition in the elderly
Health professionals on the Island are warning against a condition known as 'bungalow legs'.
It's a noticeable loss of strength in a person's lower body, due to the effects of not walking up and down stairs.
It's been suggested that older people who have moved into one story homes find ways to exercise.
