Balance Training Reduces Fear
of Falling and Improves Dynamic
Balance and Isometric Strength
in Older Adults

Falls are a major health problem for older adults, with 30-35% of those who live in the community falling at least once a year. However, fall incidence is about 3X higher in older adults who live in a skilled nursing environment than those in the community.

Training balance skills in older adults is proven to help reduce the risk of falls.
Findings from a recently published Clinical Study utilizing the Biodex Balance
System SD, is another validation of the effectiveness of balance training in older adults.
