Did you know that you can actually perform exercises to improve your balance?! Just like the right exercises can make weak muscles stronger, the right exercises can make weak balance more stable and more functional.

WHO NEEDS BALANCE EXERCISES?
There are many health conditions that require balance training. Maintaining good balance is crucial for people of all ages, but it becomes even more important as we age. Good balance helps to prevent falls and injuries, which can have serious consequences.

Persons who have experienced a neurological condition (stroke, MS, Parkinson’s, etc) and those experiencing conditions affecting their inner ear are also susceptible to decreased balance.

But that’s certainly not all! People with sprained ankles and knee injuries also greatly benefit from balance exercises to strengthen and improve the stability in these joints.

HOW DO WE BALANCE?
Before we dive into the exercises, it’s important to understand the different components that contribute to our balance. There are three main systems that work together to maintain balance:

Visual system: Our eyes help us to see where we are in space and make adjustments to maintain our balance.

Vestibular system: This system is located in the inner ear and helps us to detect changes in our head position and movement.

Somatosensory system: This system includes our muscles, joints, and nerves and provides information to the brain about the position and movement of our body in space.

Performing exercises with each of these systems minimized or eliminated is the key to an efficient balance program… and that’s exactly what you’ll learn in this video!

Due to the progressive nature of the exercises in this video, as you follow along once you reach the threshold of your abilities and are no longer to progress any further, that’s the exercise you should start with and train. Your goal should be to progress up to the “higher level” exercise when your ability allows.

SAFETY FIRST!
Please perform these exercises in a manner and location where your safety is ensured! At the kitchen counter, at the kitchen table, or around sturdy furniture is always my recommendation. Please stay somewhere where you are as safe as possible!
