Fall and Risk Assessments
Rarely do you see a pro-active concept in health care today, our entire medical model is based upon a REACTIVE thought process, meaning you only take action AFTER an illness or accident has occurred. By incorporating a specific exercise/diet or re-training healthcare approach we can RE-train your body to increase your vestibular functioning and therefore decrease your fall risk.
Better Balance of North Dakota has well established relationships with balance experts such as PRO REHAB. We will work tirelessly to reduce your potential for a fall leading to possible surgical intervention or even head/ brain trauma, leaving you with possible lifelong problems and difficulties.
Do yourself and your family members a huge favor and call today for a simple balance assessment to determine your risk level. Each test is height, weight, age and gender specific.
Remember your first fall could be your last, the #1 cause of emergency room visits are due to FALLS and Fall related problems, outweighing heart disease and cancer combined.
