HUMAC Balance

SWAhealth Physiotherapy Rehab Clinic

Have you or any of your elders ever felt unsteady on the feet or worried about falling? You’re not alone. Many people, specially in the older age group, struggle with balance issues. But there’s good news! At SwaHealth, we offer a cutting-edge solution called HUMAC Balance that can help you regain your confidence and stability. 

What is HUMAC Balance?

HUMAC Balance is a smart, computerized balance system that helps people improve their balance and reduce their risk of falling. It’s like having a high-tech personal trainer for your balance skills! This system uses advanced technology to assess your balance abilities and then creates a personalized training program just for you.

Why is Balance Important?

Good balance is crucial for everyday activities. It helps you:

  1. Walk steadily
  2. Climb stairs safely
  3. Get up from a chair easily
  4. Avoid falls and injuries
  5. Stay active and independent

As we age or recover from injuries, our balance can sometimes get worse. That’s where HUMAC Balance comes in to help!

How Does HUMAC Balance Work?

1. Assessment

First, you’ll stand on a special platform that measures how well you can keep your balance in different situations. It’s like a fun, high-tech game that tests your skills!

2. Personalized Program

Based on the assessment, the system creates a training plan just for you. This plan focuses on the areas where you need the most help.

3. Interactive Training

You’ll do various exercises on the platform, following instructions on a screen. These exercises might include shifting your weight, reaching for objects, or standing still while the platform moves slightly.

4. Progress Tracking

The system keeps track of how you’re doing, so you and your therapist can see your improvements over time.

5. Adjustable Difficulty

As you get better, the exercises become more challenging, helping you continue to improve.
