42% of Americans experience dizziness at least once in their lifetime. Some develop permanent balance issues. In fact, falls are a leading cause of serious injury and death for those over 65 and the leading reason for physician visits by adults over 75. This is where we come in and help with your balance therapy.
LifeMotion balance therapy specialists help improve your stability when walking, bending, lifting, and navigating uneven surfaces with balance retraining so you can get back to the activities you love.
Where Balance Therapy Retraining Starts
Having trouble staying steady on your feet? You may be experiencing balance problems, which can be caused by a variety of factors such as weakness, sensory deficits, inner ear disorders, or neurological issues like concussion or stroke.
In essence, balance problems are linked to your vision, inner ear, muscular system, and your body’s sense of positioning. These four systems work together to keep you balanced, but if any of them are not functioning properly, your balance can be affected.
You can easily become frustrated or even depressed as balance problems undermine your confidence to engage in common daily tasks. Untreated balance issues lead to tripping, stumbling, vertigo and even falling.

Concussion Management and Recovery
1.6 million to 3.8 million people experience concussions every year in the United States. Whether it happens during sports, recreation, or in daily life, concussions can cause lasting effects, even changing your brain chemistry.
Put simply, a concussion is what happens when your brain is violently shaken. You don’t have to get knocked out to experience a concussion; in fact, loss of consciousness happens in less than 10% of concussions.
Recovery can take between weeks and months, sometimes even longer. Holly Thompson, PT and her team bring specialized training and years of experience in helping clients recover from concussions and get back in motion again.
