Recommended exercise programmes and training equipment for fall prevention

Falls are an ever-present danger in the lives of older people. The consequences are bruises or broken bones, but also psychological restrictions such as a reduced willingness to move again after a fall. Due to age, physical and mental performance naturally decreases. This makes it more difficult to master dangerous situations that were not a problem in younger years. However, the speed of this process can be influenced.

Balance training is at the same time training of strength and sensorimotor skills. In simple terms, sensorimotor function is the interaction between sensory (e.g. nerve tracts) and motor (e.g. muscles, tendons, ligaments) performance of the body. If this interaction no longer functions properly, the risk of falling increases. On the air-filled and therefore unstable surfaces of TOGU, you train not only your ability to balance, but also your reactions, the nervous system and the deeper lying muscles, which provide for the mobility and stability of your joints. Thus you get more movement security.

The 15-minute fall prophylaxis program developed by general practitioner Dr. med. Sommer, which you can download here free of charge online and easily integrate into your everyday life, includes such exercises. It can also be carried out by previously untrained people at any age. The fall prophylaxis set is specially designed for this purpose. Other articles you will find in this category are also suitable for use in this area.

Dr. med. Gerrit Sommer:

"The ingenious thing about the healthy training concept is the optimal combination of perfect training equipment and easy implementation. This is complemented by a unique combination of exercises that is tailored to the specific training goal. Thus, training for young and old is possible".

No matter whether you use the program for prevention or only become active after a health problem has occurred: If you have any complaints, please always ask your doctor or physiotherapist for advice. Healthy training offers you a solution that you can carry out independently in everyday life as a supplement to therapeutic treatment.
