Balance Recovery & Fall Prevention

Balance Recovery & Fall Prevention Program

The Balance Recovery Program at Ability Rehabilitation Specialists benefits individuals who have balance deficits, unsteadiness with standing or walking, dizziness, or falls.

Falls are a leading cause of traumatic brain injury and fractures. One-quarter of persons who sustain a fall suffer from a reduction in mobility, reduction of independence, and increased risk of premature death (Sterling 2001).

Addressing the complex issue of balance requires highly-specialized training and treatment techniques that our balance specialists offer. We help many clients return to their prior level of function such as walking confidently inside and outside their home. We understand that preventing future falls is a key to living longer, healthier, and happier.

Contact Ability now to develop better balance, improve your strength, prevent injury, and maximize your independence.

    "I cannot THANK you enough for all the good you have done for me. Besides giving me the confidence to overcome the bulk of my vertigo, you have given me the exercises to conquer my handicap. I would certainly recommend your clinic to anyone. I also want to compliment your staff for their kind and caring ways of handling the patients."
    ~ Nathan G.
