Targeted Balance Exercises

Balance Exercises For Everyone

By Suzanne Stoke, Physical Therapist @ Exercise For Balance via www.exerciseforbalance.com/
Balance exercises are beneficial for people of all walks of life from seniors to folks who have balance problems secondary to medical conditions or to individuals who are active and want to maximize their enjoyment or performance with better balance. Please see  http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now As our population ages and as Baby Boomers swell the ranks of older adults, healthcare professionals and medical researchers have focused much of their attention to the elderly who live in assisted care facilities or frail adults who are hospitalized. That patient population has been studied extensively to learn their behaviors, patterns for falling and treatments that decrease their risk and incidence of falling. Throughout all the research studies, balance exercises have been demonstrated to be effective to reduce the incidence of falling. In Physical Therapy, however, we do not limit our balance training to only the target population of seniors or individuals who have established balance problems due to medical conditions.

Individualized Balance Exercises

Balance exercises are a critical component of every fitness and rehabilitation program. One of the wonderful aspects of stability routines is that they can be modified and advanced to meet every person's level and need. Stability exercises can be simplified to help elderly folks get up from a chair without falling over. Equilibrium exercises can be rigorously advanced to benefit competitive ice skaters or gymnasts who demand extraordinary balance abilities. In Physical Therapy, we develop an individualized program for each patient to target their current level of function and to challenge their balance skills accordingly in order to see improvement in both stability and performance of their desired activity. Thankfully, balance exercise routines have many common denominators. In the Exercise For Balance DVD, you will learn the basic components of stability techniques needed to start a balance program. The stability exercises demonstrated in the DVD progress to higher level balance activities as the participant is ready and able.
