Q.
I’ve got a few patients that are able to do all balance exercises
unsupported for maximum duration fairly easily. They can heel-toe backwards
walk with no support 4 times, stand on one leg for 30 sec unsupported and
tandem stand unsupported for 30 secs etc. and they’re only at 6 weeks!! How
do you want me to progress them? Or do I just keep them at what they are
doing?
A.
Are these participant only doing Level 4 exercises or in total, how many
of the balance exercises are they doing?
I know some of the other exercises are easier but it may be that you give
them more of the exercises to try to keep their interest i.e. do they have
time to do all 12 exercises??? and also try to increase the time doing
unsupported one leg stand and tandem stand i.e. 50 seconds and increase the
number of times doing heel-toe backwards.
They really are the tricky ones to try and push without them losing
interest.
