Exercise and chiropractic care can help with posture and spinal related pain. They can tailor a program of care to assist people of all ages .
I would recommend looking for a local chiropractor. You can go to the CAA website and search for someone in your area.

I agree with Dr Hislop that a chiropractic consultation may shine some light on why your father experiences such widespread pain after walking. It is not purely explained by his stooped posture and it is possible that he may gain some relief with chiropractic care despite the continued postural issue.
It is also essential that imaging is performed to see if osteoporosis has developed and this may help in understanding why the posture has deteriorated in recent times. His nutritional intake should be inspected.
Water based exercise which is gentle and comfortable may give him the activity he needs without the pain experienced when walking. This exercise should supervised by a trained person such as a physiotherapist.
