Father's Day

This past Sunday was Father's Day, a day that family comes together to celebrate the man of the house. Let's make sure that our fathers do not fall this coming year by giving them tips on balance, education, and staying active.

Balance - Look at your father when he walks, does he have trouble? Try observing how he stands or turns the corner. If he does not look like he is doing this properly, then contact a physical therapist or an occupational therapist to help strengthen his balance so he can walk better.

Education - A fall related injury is the #1 reason why people visit the emergency room in the United States according to the CDC. ComfiHips® is reducing the probability of hip fractures and severe injuries to those who wear them.

Staying Active - As we age, we become more sedentary in our lifestyles. Try getting your father out of the house and do an activity that everyone can enjoy. Putt putt golf, bowling, or going to a park are all great ideas on how to keep our fathers moving.

Balance Me or Balance Beam?

When was the last time you tried to stand on one foot for 30 seconds? It is harder than you think. As we get older our balance and stability becomes an issue due to a decrease in flexibility, muscle weakness and decreased response time which can cause a fall. ComfiHips® protects you when your balance is not as good as it used to be. Even when you are trying to strengthen your balance, there is still a high chance of falling. Wear the hip protector that is trusted by its thousands of users: ComfiHips®.

 

Balance and Stability

           As we age we forget that we need to keep ourselves in good physical condition. Have you tried to stand on one leg for 30 seconds? It is more difficult than it seems. Lack of balance is one of the major causes of falls. Always work on keeping yourself strong and balanced and protect your hips with a hip protector in case you fall.  Why not use the newest technology....ComfiHips®!
