As a physiatrist, I understand the importance of safe and effective exercises, especially for individuals with arthritis and age-related concerns.
In this comprehensive routine, I'll guide you through 10 simple yet effective stability ball exercises designed to promote stability, improve mobility, and reduce joint pain associated with arthritis. The stability ball is a versatile tool that adds an element of challenge while providing support and enhancing proprioception.
These exercises are carefully selected to target key muscle groups, improve joint mobility, and enhance overall functional movement. Whether you're new to exercise or looking to add variety to your routine, these exercises are suitable for all fitness levels.
