Fall Prevention and Balance Training
in San Tan Valley, AZ
If you have fallen in the past or your balance has worsened over the years, working with us can dramatically decrease your risk of injury from trips and falls.
Balance training with a physical therapist
Fall prevention is more than simply training balance. We help you train all aspects of balance: visual, vestibular, and proprioception. In addition to balance, you will work on strength and speed to give you a more stable foundation and better fall recovery. With a deep understanding of how the body works, you get a program designed around your body, your goals, and any weak links that could hold you back or lead to injury down the road.
Balance
Balance is more than just feeling centered. Visual, proprioceptive, and vestibular systems all contribute to your sense of balance.
Vision - your sight helps you orient to the world around you.
Proprioception - your sense of where you are in space helps you feel where you are positioned
Vestibular - your sense of positioning and feeling upright - your internal leveling tool
Strength and Speed
Balance helps you to know where you are. Strength and speed help you to stay upright or recover before you fall.
Strength - you need your muscles to be strong to keep you upright
Speed - you need to be able to move quickly to catch yourself before you fall
What are the benefits of better balance?
Because we understand not just how to build balance, but how to prevent falls. Training allows you to return to the things you want to do without fear of falling and gives you the tools to get back to life.
