What is Falls Prevention & Balance Re-training?

Fear of falling and imbalance decreases confidence, leading to activity avoidance, reduced mobility, social isolation, and diminished independence. This can increase actual fall risk and negatively impact quality of life.

Balance 360 Health recognizes the importance that balance and confidence in movement has in maintaining independence and quality of life. We understand that feeling safe and secure while completing exercise is important to our clients. That is why we have invested in the Solo Step ® Overhead Track System.

The Solo-Step ® Overhead Track System connects to a harness that safeguards patients from falls and injuries during physical therapy. This system increases patient confidence throughout various therapy stages, including sit-to-stand transitions, walking therapy, balance and gait training, and stair climbing exercises. Solo-Step offers patients a secure and supportive environment to progress in their rehabilitation journey.
