Avoid Future Back Pain & Injuries BALANCE SETTING YOU UP FOR AN INJURY?
Our balance and vestibular system gives us the ability to walk on two legs, run and be active. Our balance and vestibular system develop as we grow from a baby all the way through adulthood, and then begins to decline. Most people don’t know their balance is not optimum until they suffer a sports injury, trip and fall, or lose their balance in the shower. No matter what your age, balance affects your ability to be active. Can you do this? • Stand next to a counter, sink or chair barefoot with your hand gently grasping the counter surface. • Put one foot directly in front of the other, so that one heel is touching the opposite toes. • Gently lift your hand up, but keep it close to the counter in case you need to grab it quickly. Try to hold this for 10 seconds (only do this if you feel safe or have someone nearby to help you).

“The State Of Your Balance Affects A Lot!” IMPROVING BALANCE TO EASE PAIN
Strengthens Balance ALTERNATING STEP TOUCH Stand “tall”, with sturdy step stool positioned in front. Step one foot at a time onto the stool. Alternate legs. Repeat 5 times.
How balance affects sports performance The more aggressive you are in sports, the better your balance and reflexes have to be. Many ankle, knee, hip and back injuries in running, tennis and other sports are attributed to poorly performing balance. By incorporating simple balance exercises into your workout routine, you can set yourself up for success and prevent injuries, as well as enhance your sports performance. How balance affects back pain How you walk directly impacts your back and can actually be a big contributor to back pain. By improving balance, coordination and strength in your hips, pelvis and legs, your spine will be supported and guided, reducing strain. This in turn, helps your back function normally without aggravation and inflammation. Balance activities are an important component of our SPINE Program for relieving back pain. 2.5 million adults were treated for nonfatal injuries in emergency departments in 2013.
Preventing falls According to the Centers For Disease Control (CDC), over 2.5 million adults were treated for nonfatal injuries in emergency departments in 2013. In older adults, falls are the leading cause of fatal and nonfatal injuries. Most people don’t think about keeping their balance in shape, until it is too late and they fall, fracturing an arm, leg or injuring their back.The good news is that most falls can easily be prevented, simply by the regular exercising of your balance system. What you can do You can improve your balance, and it involves performing simple balance exercises.The first step in preventing an injury or fall is testing your balance and being honest with yourself that your balance needs work. Our physical therapists can make a big difference in improving your balance and vestibular system, improving your ability to be active, safely. Call us today to learn more about our specialized programs and how you can get back to an active, pain free lifestyle!

NPT Values Highlight 3 8 1 6 3 4 Caring Confidence It really stinks when Greg the grocer packs your milk on top of your bread. I doubt Greg likes flat sandwiches, so why doesn’t he care that you have to eat flat sandwiches? Funny things happen when you actually do care about what other people experience.... You end up happier, earn more money, have more friends, enjoy more success, and sleep better. Caring doesn’t cost anything, require any talent, and can sometimes save lives. Any improvement in someone’s life can usually be traced back to the care and compassion of another. So at NPT we care about everybody. A Lot!

They work as a team and everyone has my best interest at heart. Everyone that knows me knows I hate to exercise, but at NPT they change up my workout differently each week. They find fun and challenging ways to strengthen my body. The pool is awesome for my latest rehab program. I can do things in the water that I can’t in the gym. Ben, Jesse and Hannah are my very special team! Some days when I don’t feel up to keeping my appointment I go anyways and always feel better than I did when I went! I highly recommend Northern Physical Therapy!” 4
