Balance Exercises Can Improve Personal Health
By Suzanne Stoke, Physical Therapist @ Exercise For Balance via www.exerciseforbalance.com/Balance exercises are one of the most effectivce ways we can improve our health on a daily basis as well as prevent the falls that can cost us dearly both financially and physically. Please see http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now Recently, there was an article written by Margaret Sabin, President and CEO of Penrose-St Francis Health Services and South State Operating Group, on the topic of health care and personal responsibility. In part of her article she stated, "Why is it that so many of us only take personal responsibility for our health when a health crisis strikes? Why is it so hard for many of us to closely watch what we eat and drink, get plenty of exercise, better manage our stress, and take more care about what we do when we get behind the wheel of a car? America has the best medical care in the world, but that care can only do so much to reverse the effects of our lifestyle choices. Our current health care system operates like an ambulance at the bottom of the cliff, waiting to pick people up when they fall. To which I say, wouldn’t we be better off building a fence at the top of that cliff? It has taken too long to recognize that we should be working to stay well. Long term wellness is where “value” lies for the consumer. But what we must realize is that value will require all of us to become better stewards of our own health and fitness. There is a growing body of studies that demonstrate that people can play an important role in determining their own health outcomes. One recent study by Fairview Wellness Services found that engaged and informed patients can reduce the cost of health care by an average of 8 percent. The more control we exert over our health habits, the healthier we will become, resulting in lower health care costs and better health outcomes for all.”
Balance Exercises Help Seniors Prevent Falls And Stay Healthy
For individuals over the age of 60 years old, balance exercises are one of the primary means to sustain a healthy and active lifestyle. Stability exercises can not only help to prevent falls and the injuries which occur with falling, but they also provide an excellent foundation for developing an overall fitness program. Medical researchers have proven over and over again that cardiovascular, strengthening and balance exercises are critical to maintain good health throughout our lives. Starting with equilibrium exercises helps to establish a good foundation of steadiness from which you can add a fitness routine such as walking or lifting light weights. Additionally, stability exercises can be an excellent foundation for higher level activities including golf, tennis, yoga or dancing. The first step starts with taking personal responsibility for your health and developing an exercise program beginning with balance routines. Now, you can follow along with a balance exercise program established by an experienced Physical Therapist in the professionally filmed Exercise For Balance DVD.
