Balance Exercises Help Even Active Seniors

Balance exercises, balance abilities and frequent falling has been studied over a several year period for active seniors. Gustafson A.-S., Noaksson L., Grahn Kronhed A.-C., Mo¨ller M. and Mo¨ller C. in their study, Changes In Balance Performance In Physically Active Elderly People Aged 73-80, looked at balance exercises and balance abilities over a seven year period.

In our hospital in 1989 a series of 30 healthy elderly people participated in a study to evaluate the effect of physical training on improving balance. Thereafter, the majority of the people in this group continued with some kind of balance training and balance exercises. Seven years later we followed up 17 of the people who had participated in the original study. We wanted to evaluate the balance performance of these physically active elderly people and compare it with their balance performance 7 years previously. RESULTS: Balance was found to be significantly impairedcompared with 1989 in four out of six static balance tests. This study confirms that as we age even active seniors decline in their balance skills, resulting in a higher frequency of falling and greater risk of injury. This study also suggests that continuing balance exercises and balance training is imperative to try to keep balance abilities at their highest level for as long as possible as we age.
