This week, we're joined by our Chiropractor Dr. Clinton Dodge and our Occupational Therapist Meghan Walton with Holistic Integration's Balance Program to talk about our upcoming free educational seminar about preventing falls. In this episode, we talk about:
—The shocking statistics about falls, including how 1-in-4 people over the age of 65 suffers from a fall every year.
—Why elderly people in Indiana are more likely to have a fall than elderly people in Florida.
—How even kids are at risk of falls that can cause injuries with long-term consequences.
—Why Dr. Prather says Holistic Integration is "uniquely positioned" to help patients avoid falls or recover from a fall.
—The assessment everyone should give to their own home to look for potential stumbling blocks that can lead to falls. And how most falls happen in your own home.
—The 5 Components of Balance. And how those with hearing loss are three times more likely to have a fall.
—How your diet and your medications can contribute to the risk of falling.
—The ProBalance360 at Holistic Integration that is described as a "secret weapon" in helping to prevent falls and improve balance. And how this treatment has been shown to be 97% effective.
—Why Dr. Prather says that good balance is important for everyone, from helping older people to stay youthful to even helping children have a higher I.Q. and perform better in school.
—How you can receive a FREE Balance Assessment and Posture Screen by attending our educational seminar this Wednesday, December 13th at 6 p.m.
