FAQs
Why is balance training important?
Balance training is vital following an injury to reduce the likelihood of further injuries. It will help to improve your body awareness and give you greater stability on your feet, preventing falls or stumbles. It is especially helpful for aiding your recovery after an injury.
How long should you stand on a balance board?
Balance boards are great tools for improving your balance, but it is important to use them in moderation. Experts recommend standing on a wobble board for 2 to 3 minutes at a time for the most effective workout and training regime.
