Transfer of balance performance depends on the specificity of balance training
Journal of Applied PhysiologyOur study showed that improvement in balance performance is task-specific, with transfer depending on functional similarities between the trained and the untrained tasks. Computational nonlinear methods highlighted that training could extend the improved efficiency and automaticity of balance control of the trained task to a similar untrained task ...

Advances in balance assessment and balance training for diabetes
Diabetes Management, 2012SUMMARY As clinicians, we have been searching for objective and widely available outcome measures for our care. We also prefer these measuring processes not to burden our busy clinics or patients’ time. With this in mind, it seems that there are many challenges to treating patients with diabetes. Some of these are well recognized and some are not.

Slackline Training for Balance and Strength Promotion
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2010The prevalence of sustaining a sport injury is high in adults. Deficits in postural control/muscle strength represent important injury-risk factors. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of a specific type of balance training, i. e. slackline training, followed by detraining on balance and strength performance.

Effects of Balance Training on Balance Performance in Youth: Are There Age Differences?
Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2020Purpose: In youth, cross-sectional studies reported age differences in balance performance that were in favor of adolescents. Thus, trainability of balance performance might be different in children compared to adolescents. The purpose of this study was therefore to compare the effects of balance training (BT) on balance performance between children ...

Training or EPT in perimenopause on balance and flushes
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2007AbstractWith advancing age, the postural balance function deteriorates as a consequence of decreased functional capacity. Deteriorating balance is a risk factor for bone fractures due to increased risks of falls. It has been suggested that the loss of estrogen, which occurs in relation to the menopause, may be associated with loss of balance.

Dynamic Balance Training by Balance Board for the Elderly
1994Focusing attention on falls, a dynamic balance training program using a balance board was carried out by a group of elderly persons for 3 weeks. We investigated dynamic balance and physical fitness factors before and after training. The subjects included 54 young adults and 58 elderly persons.

Dental School: Balancing Education and Training
Journal of Dental Education, 2014Dental students graduating in 2014 will likely be in active practice until 2054. In those forty years, the dental profession will have seen an even greater number of changes than have occurred since 1974.

The Effect of Balance Training on Balance Performance in Individuals Poststroke
Journal of Neurologic Physical Therapy, 2010Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, and impaired balance after stroke is strongly associated with future function and recovery. Until recently there has been limited evidence to support the use of balance training to improve balance performance in this population. Information about the optimum exercise dosage has also been lacking.

Balance training in ataxic neuropathies. Effects on balance and gait parameters
Gait & Posture, 2013A rehabilitation program including foot sensory stimulation, balance and gait training with limited vision was followed by 30 patients with ataxic neuropathy in order to stimulate multi-sensory compensation in a no-controlled and no-blinded study. Ataxic neuropathy was graded by a pallesthetic score.

Can Balance Training Promote Balance and Strength in Prepubertal Children?
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2011The prevalence of sustaining a fall is particularly high in children. Deficits in postural control and muscle strength are important intrinsic fall risk factors. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of balance training (BT) followed by detraining on postural control, plantar flexor strength, and jumping height in prepubertal ...
