A Matter of Balance Fall Prevention Program
The Matter of Balance Program (MOB) is an award-winning program designed to help older adults manage falls and increase activity levels. The program is a free eight week program. It is held once a week for eight consecutive weeks. Each session is two hours. The MOB participants will learn to view falls as something they can control, set goals and increase activity levels, make changes to reduce fall risks at home and exercise to increase strength and balance.
A Matter of Balance is for you if:
- You are concerned about falls.
- You want to improve your balance, strength and flexibility.
- You have fallen in the past.
- You don’t do things you used to enjoy because you fear falling.
