As September comes to a close, we want to leave you with some tips you can utilize to Fight the Fall all year long! Follow these tips to help prevent future falls:

▪️ Have your hearing and vision tested.
▪️ Utilize an assistive device if you need help feeling steady when upright.
▪️ Wear non-skid, supportive footwear.

Individuals of all ages and conditions may be at risk of falling. At FYZICAL, our skilled physical therapists will create balance programs specifically tailored to each person’s needs, enabling our patients to regain their footing, confidence, and freedom!

Did you know? Falling can occur because of disruptions to the body’s sensory and/or motor systems, causing loss of balance. To maintain balance, the brain must receive and interpret information from several different senses:

▪️ Vision (from the eyes) helps orient you to your environment.
▪️ Proprioception, or joint position sense (from your joints and muscles) helps to tell 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. Find the FYZICAL nearest you for a balance screening today, by visiting: https://hubs.li/Q02F_rbz0

Today is the start of Falls Prevention Awareness Week, hosted by the National Council on Aging (NCOA). This week is dedicated to raising awareness about the impact of falls and how to prevent them.

We join NCOA in their dedication to:

▪️ Raising awareness: falls are a critical issue; they are the leading cause of injuries for older adults.
▪️ Improving education: providing valuable information on how to prevent falls through lifestyle changes and safety measures.
▪️ Empowering our communities: it’s important to take proactive steps in reducing fall risk; contact your local FYZICAL for help: https://hubs.li/Q02F_FkH0.

▪️ Vertigo
▪️ Difficulty with coordination

Don't ignore these signs! If you need further intervention, find the FYZICAL location nearest you: https://hubs.li/Q02Qg9fd0

How can you tell if your balance needs improvement?

Follow the single-leg stance test below to see if balance training could help:

▪️ Stand next to a counter, sink, or chair with your hand gently grasping the counter surface.
▪️ Leave your eyes open and put your hands on your hips. Grasp the surface or put your leg down if you start to feel unsteady during the test.
▪️ Stand on one leg unassisted and have a loved one time you once your foot leaves the ground. Stop the timer if you grasp the counter or when you put your second foot down.

If you were not able to stand on one leg for at least 10 seconds, your balance may need work! Find the clinic nearest you to learn more about our balance training program: https://hubs.li/Q02FWy060

Fall-proofing your home can help greatly decrease your or your loved ones’ risk of falling:

▪️ Clear all walkways throughout your home to prevent tripping hazards.
▪️ Use double-sided tape or non-slip backing on your throw rugs to help keep from slipping.
▪️ Ensure adequate lighting throughout your home so you can fully see while moving around during the day and night.
▪️ Fix loose or broken handrails and consider installing handrails on both sides of the stairs.

These tips and more can help protect yourselves or your loved ones from falling at home!

At FYZICAL, we have changed the way balance and vestibular therapies are performed. Our Safety Overhead Support (SOS) System does more than keep patients safe and secure. This overhead harness support system consists of an overhead track and moveable trolly, allowing patients, while secured in a simple body harness, the freedom to ambulate, perform functional types of activities, and fall with minimal risk of injury. With the SOS System, our therapists can help address conditions including:

▪️ Fall risk
▪️ Gait retraining
▪️ Neurological rehabilitation
▪️ Balance therapy
▪️ Vestibular dysfunction
▪️ Meniere’s Disease
▪️ Pre- and Post-surgery

Each year, nearly 28% of adults over 65 experience a fall, resulting in over 38,000 deaths and over 8 million injuries requiring medical treatment.

Every September, FYZICAL clinics across the country join together to Fight the Fall by spreading awareness of the danger of falls and how falls can be prevented. We’ll be sharing information about our balance training program and tips on how to stay balanced all month long so we can Fight the Fall together!

Why do we lose our balance?

Falling occurs because the body’s balance has been disrupted through the person’s sensory and/or motor systems. A person’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.
