This Fall Prevention Month, let’s talk about a game-changer for staying steady: exercise!
As we age, changes in vision, hearing, muscle strength, and reflexes can all increase the risk of falling—but balance can be improved.
Targeted exercise helps retrain and strengthen the body’s natural balance systems. Here’s how:
✅ Builds muscular strength – for greater stability and support
✅ Enhances coordination – improving how your brain and body work together
✅ Improves body awareness – so you move more confidently through your surroundings
✅ Increases reaction time – helping you recover quickly if you trip or stumble
Whether you're aiming to stay independent or help a loved one stay safe, exercise is a powerful place to start.
