Dear Reader:
We've all heard stories that begin, "She broke her hip and after that..." Broken hips can be disastrous for independence and long-term health. Fortunately, many can be prevented — more than 90% of broken hips occur because of falls.
One of the best ways to prevent falls is to maintain a sound, responsive, and enduring sense of balance.
This important Special Health Report from doctors at Harvard Medical School shows you how you can prevent falls. In its pages you will discover what you can do to improve balance and maintain strength, mobility, and agility.
Better Balance will brief you on the conditions, medications, and situations that can create instability. You'll get tips for fall-proofing your home. And most important, Better Balance will walk, lift, bend, and stretch you through a series of workouts and exercises that will increase your stability, confidence, and self-reliance.
The report provides all you need to know about using exercise to improve posture, increase muscle strength and speed, sharpen reflexes, expand flexibility, and firm your core. Filled with workouts that respect your time and budget, Better Balance gives you step-by-step instructions for achieving greater static and dynamic balance.
The report includes complete, illustrated workouts that you can do at home — on your own schedule and at your own pace. Certified Master Trainers developed these exercises in consultation with Harvard Medical School physicians. These workouts include guidance on proper techniques, movement and tempo, and modifying the workouts to your own fitness level and exercise goals. These are exercises that will keep you motivated and keep you moving.
Our goal in this report is to help you keep yourself from a potentially devastating fall. If you want to protect yourself from instability, if you want to continue to enjoy the independence and peace of mind that sound balance gives you, take the first step now.
