Balance Exercises And Emphysema

Balance Exercises Help With Emphysema

By Suzanne Stoke, Physical Therapist @ Exercise For Balance via http://www.exerciseforbalance.com Balance exercises are a foundational exercise regime to perform for those individuals who suffer with emphysema secondary to changes in posture and changes in the body's balance point due to difficulties with breathing.  Emphysema is a condition that occurs when long tissue is slowly destroyed causing you to be more and more short of breath.  Emphysema is also known as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.  At this time, it is thought that emphysema is primarily caused by smoking.  More specifically, emphysema at destroyed is a small air sacs in the lungs and reduces the lungs capacity to exchange oxygen. Additionally with a condition of emphysema the lungs become increasingly stiffer and air gets trapped in the long tissue. With emphysema as time goes on it becomes increasingly more difficult to breathe both in and out.  As a secondary response, individuals with emphysema tend to lean forward and hunched over as they try to get air in and out of the lungs.  This forward bend posture can then affect the persons balance with standing and walking.   Please see  http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now

Balance Exercises For Emphysema

Balance exercises and balance training becomes more and more important as the signs and symptoms of emphysema progresses. With a forward bend posture, the body’s weight is shifted forward which increases the potential for falling.  Stability exercises can help teach the individual how to center their body weight and how to control weight shifting at their ankles to improve balance and reduce the risk of falling.  Daily equilibrium exercises can also maximize balance reactions at the ankles which helps to correct the body's weight shifting and stability.  As a bonus, balance training can also help to enhance correct upright posture and minimize the forward bent position for those with emphysema.
