Stannah Balance app for iPhone and iPad

When we are children, balancing is something that we practise regularly, riding bikes, playing hopscotch, climbing and skipping. But as we grow older we do these things less. You may feel that your balance isn’t as good as it once was, or perhaps you feel it never was that great.

The good news is that it is never to late to improve your balance. By simply placing your phone in your pocket while you complete these short, gentle balance training exercises, the Stannah Balance app. can measure your balance.

Done regularly you will benefit from improved bone density, greater muscle strength and better posture.
We hope that you will also feel less ‘wobbly’, more confident about your balance and this will reduce your risk of falling.

There are three levels to the Balance training. The closer your feet come together the harder it is to balance which you will notice as you follow the exercises

* Level 1 – Semi tandem
* Level 2 – Tandem
* Level 3 – Uni-pedal

Each level starts at 15 seconds per exercise and as you improve will increase to 60 seconds.
You will be rewarded with awards and medals as you exercise and improve.

Whilst the phone is in your pocket you will be given audio instructions. The exercise training does contain short rests but you can also pause and resume them at anytime.
