PREVENT FALLS WITH WINTER WATER-BASED BALANCE TRAINING

PREVENT FALLS WITH WINTER WATER-BASED BALANCE TRAINING cover

As winter brings colder weather and slippery conditions, the risk of slips and falls increases, especially for older adults. While balance training is deemed essential for maintaining stability and reducing the risk of falls, it can become tougher to keep up with your training during the colder seasons.

One viable solution is to explore training in a warm water pool. Why? Primarily, it offers a safe environment for balance exercises, providing buoyancy that supports your joints and muscles while challenging your equilibrium. Secondarily, continuing to do balance exercises throughout the winter season can help improve your coordination, strengthen your core muscles, and enhance your overall stability.

In addition to reducing the risk of falls, balance training in warm water offers a host of other wonderful therapeutic benefits:

  • Improvement in circulation
  • Reduction in stress levels
  • Promotion of relaxation
  • Reduction in inflammation

It’s a comprehensive approach to winter wellness that promotes both physical health and peace of mind. Make balance training your priority this winter through balance training in our warm water pool.
