Fall Prevention and Balance Training

Overview: Falls are a major concern for seniors, often leading to serious injuries. Our fall prevention programs focus on improving balance, strength, and coordination to help reduce the risk of falls.

Benefits

Recent studies emphasize the importance of structured exercise programs in preventing falls among the elderly. Balance and functional exercises, including Tai Chi, have been shown to reduce the rate of falls by approximately 24%. These programs improve balance, coordination, and strength, significantly decreasing the risk of falls. Group and individual exercises are equally effective, and interventions can be delivered by health professionals or trained exercise leaders (ijbnpa.biomedcentral)​​ (trialsjournal.biomedcentral).
