Do you worry about falling? Have you experienced falls recently or find yourself unsteady on your feet? Are you looking for ways to improve your balance?
Falls are the leading cause of injury in people over 60 and the top cause of accidental death for those over 65. At Busch Chiropractic in Fort Wayne, we understand the critical nature of these statistics and have implemented the Balance Protocol to address these issues, providing balance and fall prevention therapy. This breakthrough therapy helps improve balance, stability, and coordination to help prevent falls and enhance cognitive function.
The Risks of Falling and Why Stability is Important
Maintaining good balance is crucial for preventing falls, which can have significant impacts on health and independence. As we age, falls can be particularly dangerous, leading to serious outcomes like head and brain injuries, broken bones, restricted mobility, hospitalization, long-term rehabilitation, or worse.
- One-third of individuals aged 65 and older experience a fall annually.
- Two-thirds of those who fall will experience another fall within six months.
- 95% of hip fractures in older adults are caused by falls.
- 20% of falls lead to serious injuries such as fractures and traumatic brain injuries.
- Half of those injured in falls never return to their homes.
- Falls are the top cause of death among older adults.
- An older adult dies from a fall every 20 minutes.
Every stumble doesn’t need to end in a fall. With balance and fall prevention therapy, you can feel more secure when standing, walking, or climbing stairs, and effectively handle obstacles encountered in daily life.
Balance and Fall Prevention Therapy
The fear of falling shouldn’t dictate your life. With the Balance Protocol, you can regain confidence in your movements and achieve significant improvements in balance and coordination—often noticing progress within days. Most patients report a 60-70 percent improvement in a very short period.
How the Busch Balance Protocol Works
Improving stability and coordination is essential for preventing falls and maintaining independence, especially as we age. The Balance Protocol is designed to improve your stability through a targeted, three-step approach, making everyday activities safer and more enjoyable.
Step 1: Personalized Evaluation
Our first step is to assess your Stability Index, a critical measure of how your body maintains balance. Based on this evaluation, we tailor a treatment plan designed to strengthen your musculoskeletal systems and correct any deficits, enhancing your overall stability.
Step 2: Targeted Treatment
Using specialized protocols, we stimulate key soft tissues and neural pathways. This targeted approach aids in recovering lost balance and enhances your body’s natural coordination abilities, making each step more secure.
Step 3: Balance Freedom
Gain freedom from the fears of falling and instability. Our treatment protocol can improve your quality of life and restore your peace of mind, allowing you to enjoy daily activities without worry.
