Whoa! Did you know people who fall LESS OFTEN are actually MORE LIKELY to be injured According to one recent study, people who fell 1-2 times per year reported more notable injuries than people who fell >5 times per year!... Why? Well, authors observed that less-frequent fallers were more mobile day-to-day and thus tended to fall while doing things like walking. Compare this to frequent fallers who tended to fall from chairs, bed, or during transfers between the two. Authors also noted that nearly 1/3 of #falls happened with backwards loss of balance and 1/4 happened to the side. In our experience, most people feel afraid of falling forwards, but the study suggests that this happens less often. In any case, no matter if you fall infrequently or often, falls are a leading cause of death and disability among people over 65 and there is a lot that can be done to PROACTIVELY reduce risk. Scheduling a FREE consultation with us is a great way to learn how you can take control of your fall risk factors and move with better confidence. Visit us at: https://indiept.com
