Practice Balance Exercises Before Working Overhead

By Suzanne Stoke, Physical Therapist @ Exercise For Balance via www.exerciseforbalance.com

Balance exercises are important to perform before doing any overhead activities.  Please see www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now .

Overhead activities can include:

-washing windows

-getting dinner plates out of a cupboard

-changing a light bulb

-adjusting a picture or a wall hanging

    When working above the shoulders and overhead, it is natural to shift one's body weight posteriorly towards the heels. Unfortunately, with our body weight in our heels we do not have much room to correct ourselves if we lose our balance. People often fall backwards and injure their back or hit their head. Equilibrium exercises can help improve balance for overhead activities.

 

Perform Simple Balance Exercises For Overhead Activities

    By practicing specific balance exercises every day you can avoid losing your balance while doing normal overhead activities.  A balance exercise program can include specific instruction on how to center your body weight in the middle of your base support under your feet. Stability exercises can teach you how to control shifting your weight within your base of support, without losing your balance or falling.  Equilibrium exercises will help you to strengthen your balance reactions at your feet and ankles.  Stability routines done on a daily basis will also enhance your awareness of how steady you are during different daily activities.  That awareness and hands use the connection between your brain and body, resulting in better balance and a decreased risk of falling. Now, you can practice specific balance routines and stability techniques in a comfort of your home with the Exercise For Balance DVD.
