What Makes Up Our BALANCE?

We have been looking at Balance and how to improve our balance through balance exercises. Balance is a complex system composed of sensory input from our Vision, Proprioception (touch) and the Vestibular System (equilibrium). Next, our brains must integrate all the sensory information. Finally, a Motor Output is sent to the muscles in the body to maintain an upright posture, whether we are still or moving.

Injury, disease and age causes each one of those systems to become compromised. Daily balance exercises are needed to keep our balance systems functioning at their optimal rate and to prevent falls and injury. The Exercise For Balance DVD presents the best balance exercises needed to improve our balance and to keep from falling.
