10 Best Balance Exercises (Basic) - Ask Doctor Jo

Показать описание

The Romberg series starts out on the easier side, but can get harder. When you place your feet together, it makes your base of support smaller, and this makes your muscles work harder. You can do Romberg with your eyes open, eyes closed, head turns side to side, head movements up and down, and on an uneven surface.

You can also do all of these with a tandem stance. Tandem is when one foot is directly in front of the other. You can modify this by just placing one slightly ahead of the other.

Hi, Dr. Jo! I’ve become a fan! I did these with my 91-year old father who has fallen at home. The progression in this sequence was perfectly gentle. He felt safe yet challenged. Thank you 🙏🏼 You’re so kind!

This is the perfect video! It's compact enough to watch and do on a 15 minute break, and caregivers can help with these in the home. So glad you are on YT Dr. Jo!

Hi Dr. Jo. 🙋🏻‍♀️ I'm 62 and have terrible balance. So today I started your exercises. Thank you so much!!! I'm excited about getting my good balance back. How much time should I spend a day on this full routine of one minute each exercise? Should I do it 5 times a day? It does make my feet hurt immediately but I'm still going to do it. Because my poor balance scares me. I have to come up 2 flights of stairs to my apartment. Starting the "Y" tomorrow with some strengthening tasks. I have an instructor for 3 sessions for free! Thank you so much for your help!! 🙋🏻‍♀️🕊️💗🙏

I have nerve damage in my right leg and over the years my balance has worsened. These exercises are a gentle way of improving it! Thanks

Are these exercises good for vertigo? I’m finding it difficult to do them because of my nausea, will it get better day after day?

These look great. I will need to do balance PT when I’m cleared from my spinal fusion. I have a feeling that things are going to shut down again due to delta. I want to get back to yoga, and you know yoga requires balance!
