If you are over sixty years of age, practicing daily balance exercises is as important as brushing your teeth.  Please see  http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now  Brushing your teeth is one of the most common routines you do every morning and every night. By your sixth decade, no one has to make you do it. You don't even think much about it, since it has become part of your regular routine. You would not go a week without brushing your teeth because you don't want cavities. Likewise, it is surely just as essential to practice balance exercises every day in order to prevent falling and the injuries that accompany falling. Dental care is an imperative activity for prevention of cavities and dental disease. In the same light, practicing stability routines is critical for preventing falls and maintaining an excellent quality of life.

Combine Balance Exercises With Brushing Your Teeth

One efficient way to practice balance exercises and to make sure you get them in every day is to combine them with actually brushing your teeth. While brushing your teeth you can stand on one foot, which challenges the balance reactions at the feet and ankles, increasing the speed and strength of those reactions. The standing on one foot equilibrium routine helps to improve steadiness with walking, which contains a one footed episode with each step that we take.  Additionally, you can also try standing with your feet in a tandem stance. This position involves standing with one foot directly behind the other foot in a line. With this narrow base of support, your balance reactions will be challenged and improved over time as you rehearse these routines on a consistent basis. You can rehearse the necessary balance exercises every day by following the instruction of a knowledgeable Physical Therapist in the Exercise For Balance DVD.
