No matter your age, balance can always be improved. Even those without a balance disorder can suffer from balance-related injuries. Below is a quick exercise to try; the results will tell you if you should consult a PT. Be sure to have a sturdy surface to grasp onto if you become unstable.

1. Start by standing with your feet close together.
2. Lift one leg off the ground and see if you can hold for 30 seconds.
3. Switch legs and try again.

Did you wobble or lose your balance? This means your balance needs work. Contact FYZICAL to schedule your fall risk screening today!

Falling occurs because the bodyโ€™s balance has been disrupted through the personโ€™s sensory and/or motor systems. A personโ€™s body can maintain balance because the brain receives and interprets information from several different types of senses:

- Vision (from the eyes) helps orient you to your environment.
- Proprioception or joint position sense (from your joints and muscles, telling your brain where your body is in space).
- The vestibular system (from the inner ear) senses motion, equilibrium, and head position.

Based on these inputs, the brain sends information to different muscles of the body to help maintain balance.
