Tai Ji Quan: Moving for Better Balance(R) is a fall prevention program that has been shown in clinical studies to reduce the incidence of falls by over 50%.
Each class is based on modified Tai Chi movements that help improve your balance, lower body strength and posture stability.
Stabilizing the spine and hip to prevent fractures should be the first step in any osteoporosis/osteopenia exercise program.
Our osteoporosis/osteopenia program is the only one of it's kind in the Northern Virginia area.
We are a certified "The Meeks Method" facility utilizing the only known exercises that have been shown in medical studies to reduce the likelihood and incidence of compression fractures.
There are many exercise programs offered at traditional health clubs, Yoga and Pilate's studios, the YMCA and Curves.
The complimentary Health Strategy Session allows us to meet and talk about how to improve your health.
We'll talk about your goals, your health challenges and how you want to feel in the future.
We will discuss what it takes to feel better and achieve that excellent health feeling.
You'll learn how making small changes can literally change your life.
This is also the time to ask questions and chart your new direction.
After the complimentary Health Strategy Session, your next step will be a one hour, in-depth health and fitness assessment.
The statistics are staggering.
One out of three people age 65 and older falls each year and over two million people are treated in emergency departments annually for fall related injuries.
We offer the Centers for Disease Control STEADI Falls Prevention Program that first evaluates your falls risk and then offers instruction and classes to help you improve your balance and lower body strength.
There are over 250,000 hip fractures and 750,000 vertebral compression fractures that occur every year related to a lack of balance and strength or bone health problems such as osteoporosis or low bone mass (osteopenia).
Our Fall Prevention Screening offers three simple tests that can accurately predict your risk of falls.
Falls can lead to fractures and other serious injuries.
These tests are a part of the CDC- STEADI Falls Prevention Program.
Once you know your score and risk level, we'll help you create a program to reduce your risk of falling.
You can practice these simple activities at home or join one of our Fall Prevention Classes.
The videos below demonstrate the tests that we use in our Falls Prevention Screening.
