Balance Exercises Following Back Surgery

Balance Exercises After Back Surgery

Balance exercises are important to perform following back surgery. Many times previous to back surgery, our posture is altered in a forward bent or side bent position secondary to pain. One of the pillars of balance exercises is to center our weight as a plumb line coming through our body. The centering our weight balance exercise helps to improve posture following back surgery. Additionally, prior to back surgery there is usually leg pain, numbness and tingling associated with back pain. The extremity symptoms also alter posture with standing and walking, which diminishes balance abilities. Consequently, balance exercises to center the balance point in our feet are important to practice following back surgery. Balance exercises also help to focus on the sense of touch between the feet and a floor. Hopefully, this sense of touch in the feet is improved after back surgery and needs to be enhanced with balance exercises.

Balance Exercises Improve Strength After Back Surgery

Balance exercises are a key component of improving core muscle strength following back surgery. Balance exercises challenge the
