7 Balance Exercises for Seniors-Fall Prevention by Physical Therapists 

You two are my "go to" resource for seniors and pt issues. Thank you so much.

I am so happy as I am senior citizen to find the right exercise for my joint pain God bless both the physiotherapist Bob & Brad

EXCELLENT! My balance went to pieces after immunotherapy & these exercises are PERFECT! Thank you so much!

I absolutely love the encouraging vibes that this channel has. keep it up. This will be very helpful to my father who suffered a stroke.

I am so glad I ran into your videos, as my balance is terrible. I had Physical Therapy till this Conronavirus got so bad. I had something to offer that might helps others. I am using the door way to do your exercises, as I'm more weak than I thought. I think your exercises are going to be great for me. Thank you.

Thank you Bob and Brad, please keep up your good work

Great info!! I injured my Achilles tendon on my right foot and as I was rehabbing the physical therapist had me perform the touch toe on the pad exercise.Needless to say it was a challenge!!! Thanks again for all your videos

Really love your idea for the exercise with the non-slip circles! I work in geriatric rehab and will definitely make some to work with my patients. Keep up the good work Bob and Brad xx

Bob and Brad videos are great. They explain in simple form and show you exercises on balance etc. They make it interesting. Great advice.

I am happy to see some of the exercises I already do. Thanks for sharing these. I've needed these because I couldn't afford therapy after the stroke I had. I've had to learn my own exercises.

I walk and lift weights at the gym, but I need something to improve and ensure my balance. I think these exercises will do it! Thanks for sharing, guys!

I appreciate all of your videos. Thank you. I’ve fallen and thank goodness I am able to get up. I have MS with weakness and I’m always looking for activities to improve my balance.

Bob and Brad, thank you so much for everything you do. So many people worldwide don't have access to a physical therapist. You have helped me so much with getting older and coping successfully with several difficult problems. Thank you again.

I have done your pt instructions religiously….. and it always makes me stronger

You guys rock. This is similar to exercises Rehab Institute of Chicago prescribed for me. You helped me with my sciatica and now you're helping me with my balance. Thanks so much!

This is exactly what I need to practice. Thank you!

I sure remember doing what you are doing now so many times with MS and I sure am glad you are showing them for balance I really need those for sure. I used my fireplace mantel. Thanks. My neck pain came back after doing some packing . Dummy me. I have to. Sure am glad you are still doing videos

I really have learned a lot from the two of you. You explain things so that we can understand the exercise and why not to do it other ways that might seem easier. You always explain the whys and the what is best and why it is best to do it certain ways. Thank you both for these videos that have helped me more than I can say. Keep up the good work. You surely have helped a lot of people improve their health and lives.

You are so helpful....69 yr. woman and still excercising

So glad I found you guys. I've tried to find physical therapy info online and you have so much great information. Love all your videos. Thank you.

Thanks so much! I’m 8 weeks past a knee replacement and am working to improve my balance.

These are the exact same exercises I am currently doing with my therapist to treat my vertigo! I was amazed as you guys were going through it it's like oh I do that yeah I do that OK now we're doing this. You guys are amazing just like my therapist!

Thank you so much.Good bless you for all your help to the seniors

Just came across this site.....very informative. I have been recovering for 6 months from laminectomy, discectomy, kyphoplasty, with 3 months of physical therapy! Continuing to work on recovery and plan to try the back routine with the ball. Thank you for sharing info!

I am so thankful for the videos you're making, thank you. and great point about putting full foot on stepstool so as not to lose balance on step.

Thank you sirs. This video is really helpful for me. I have serious balance disorder. I am practising these exercises.

Thank you so much for these exercises. They make such a difference. :)

Great video - you two know your stuff. You've given me eight good exercises to work on. Bless you!

I am a PTA working in home health. I have gotten such great ideas to try with my patients! Thank You!!!

I'm so glad I found your channel I'm 31 and I had a stroke 6 months ago and I just started physical therapy and ot watching you guys is easier then the place I go to telling me I'm a visual learner so this helps!

So greatful I found you! I am relatively young but I have both hips replaced and worry about falling. I have leapt up too fast several times and tripped over my feet!

These exercises are great, thanks for posting this video!

motivating and uplifting, creative, and can-do. love these guys!

I first discovered Bob & Brad when I started working with seniors in 2020. The whole exercise routine they used was from your channel, same order even. I then discovered all of your other fantastic videos. I now work as a Wellness Coordinator and provide classes in IL, AL, Memory and Skilled. I find everything I need to produce great exercise, balance and fun from your channel. Thanks so much for all you do to strengthen and heal us. We are so grateful for you both, keep on Rockin!!

Ooh, also wanted to add, that practicing while brushing your teeth is great advice, bc it becomes habitual. Our teacher taught us that when my mom and I started classes yrs ago.

Thank You, I love dialogue about our movement that is not talked about and described.

You guys are great! Thanks for sharing all these videos!

Thanks I love your videos for seniors, they have helped a lot, I don’t have balance problems, but I can’t get on the ground to exercise!

Found y’all a few days ago. Lovin’ it as an extra study tool as I’m in school to become a PTA so thank you!

Very well demonstrated, Bob N Bret.

Love your videos! Great and helpful information.

I love you for all the help you give it is wonderful and so are you

This video is really helpful.

Found the exercises excellent. They echo what I do with my physiotherapist and what we do in the physio-gym activities. Well done fellas - good one.

Noise in the background is distracting but I love the exercise and see great promise for my walking and balance

Another good job, well done guys. Thank you, bmw

You guys are so user friendly! I have recently subscribed, having spinal issues, and your videos are so helpful. Greetings from Italy!

This is great information. I hope you will consider re-doing this video without all the background noise, and making the dos and don'ts clearer for those who are elderly or hard of hearing. I love your channel.

Doing my physical therapy clinical posting now and you guys are the reason I still have my sanity x) ❤️

great information

I started watching your channel last year when I had my first experience with vertigo which turned out to be BPPV. I watched your videos on BPPV and the Epley maneuver. I wished I lived close to you because I knew you could have helped me. Anyway, I did find an ENT in Miami, FL - 4 hours from where I live - and saw him. He confirmed the problem as being BPPV and performed the Epley maneuver. which helped for awhile. But every time I need information and demonstration on any subject relating to balance and exercise, it's you guys I turn to. Your information and demonstrations are complete and more helpful than any other site I have found. I just want to say Thank You. You guys really are the best!

you guys are the best physical therapist ...I even talk about you guys to my pt.

One of your very best videos, most useful!! Thank you!

Love love love you guys thank you so much for sharing this information.

BOB, you really doing good job, and you are doing your best

First I’m 79. I was having problems with my feet and my balance, where I live in the UK we have streets that are cobbled and I felt very unsteady walking on them so avoided them, about three months ago I decided I must go to the doctor, I decided to look on line and came across a web site that recommended heel and toe walking, I tried it right away, my feet don’t bother me at all now and I make a point of walking down the cobbled streets on purpose now because I feel so confident.

Excellent video guys, very informative techniques. My doctor even know about your channel and recommends it.

Helpful video as always, thanks guys

Thank You for Sharing very helpful exercising tips

I love these tips-thank you!

Great show gentleman brilliant thank you very much

Thank you for these exercises for balance. Some dance routines are similar. Thank you so much.

Thank u sir .... ur all exrsices r really effectively... too good ... 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Good video, Thanks!

Love you guys and watch you all the time. The chatting in the background was a little distracting, but still could hear you. The only thing I do differently with my folks when practicing balance, is I have the kick off their shoes and socks. It's like trying to practice typing with mittens on.

Excellent video, in my opinion of course.

Excellent Video and useful Information!! Thank You !!!

Awesome tips thanks

Great help for Elderly People who live alone. As does a large number of the Population nowadays. Thanks so much for your Videos!!

Wow! great video! You guys make learning fun!

Thankyou for this video, really helpful .

I just discovered your site! I immediately Subscribed. I use a cane daily, especially now that Idaho is swathed in winter. But I also have a walker left over from a time when I had a spinal compression fracture. I try to use it for stability and support for some exercises. If you see opportunities for your patients to use walker besides chair, please mention. I like your team work and your periwinkle blue 👕 shirts.

One of your best ! You guys obviously are speaking from vast experience and the paths of various progressions that you outline are doable if I do the work- would much prefer a pill, but that's not how reality is.

Very helpful Video for Balance! Thanks!!

Awesome! Such a great video 💪🏼

Thank you for sharing these videos on fall prevention. I've been working with my mother-in-law using your techniques. She is prone to falls. Would you please recommend some techniques to assist getting up from the floor after a fall? Thanks so much!

this is great! I'm only 47 but notice that I've had some issues with balance. i've lost a lot of weight but now I have hip an kne arthritis. these may help!

Thank you so much for sharing the above excersize. You have explained and showed how to do the excercise. I now want to do the above shared excercise. I cannot raise my knee as briefed. To sway my legs i iniate movement from my hip muscles .

This is awesome. Therapy is MEDICINE!

Thank you another good one...God Bless

Very good knowledge.

You helped my Stroke Husband to walk better. Today he was tested on the blood flow on his Stroke side. It was excelent. Thank you.

Really helpful video, like most of them. I'd just like to comment that joining a tai chi class is the best thing I've done for my balance. I'm 64+ and the only exercise of yours that I wavered on was closing my eyes and stand on one foot.

I learned some used exercises, thanks.

Thank you this is an awesome video

Great stuff you guys

Thanks a lot guys

I was trying to follow Sylvie Guillem but I couldn't keep up. You guys set a more reasonable pace, thanks!
